Now, don't you think that mimes would have a real advantage since they have the little box around them? The balls would bounce off the box without hitting the mimes!
Mime sports: Reality TV, largely starring unknowns, has spread to sports through golf shows on CBS and The Golf Channel and planned boxing shows on NBC and Fox. Mark Cuban, owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, will get a reality show on ABC. And an ESPN reality show this fall will let contestants win sports prizes for friends by getting in shark tanks.
But the Game Show Network's Extreme Dodgeball, debuting June 15, might be the most inventive. This dodgeball — although hyped as "Raging Ball" — seems more conventional than extreme. But its casting breaks new ground in made-for-TV sports: Squads, grouped by occupation, include sumo wrestlers, weightlifters, jockeys and mimes.
