Sports Reality Show Idea

This is just a thought, feel free to say it's a silly idea if you want to. I think it would be neat to have some sort of a TV show where famous athletes put themselves on the line and try to showcase their talents in a different sport. Imagine Lebron James trying to hit a major league fastball, or Albert Pujols trying to drain a 3 pointer, or Peyton Manning trying to strike out Alex Rodriguez (of course, he would need $10 million for his appearance fee), or Ichiro trying to tackle Ladanian Tomlinson.

Ok, it's silly, but I would watch, wouldn't you?

    It would be comical but I highly doubt their contracts would allow it... But yes I would enjoy watching it!

    I wonder how fast Brett Favre could throw a baseball off a mound. I bet he could flat hum one.

    Bring "Home Run Derby" back.

    Ratings machine, without a doubt.

    I'd like to see Phil Mickelson trying to throw a deep pass with Rodney Harrison coming full speed on a blitz

    yeah - how about Terrell Owens vs Rampage Jackson in a Cage Match for 5 minutes

    I'd pay $500 for that

    I remember hearing one time that Magic Johnson was playing in a pick up game of softball in his hometown and was
    sliding into home plate a lot, the Lakers found out about it after the fact and were very angry since he could have
    suffered a career ending injury.
