One
wonders if the American addiction to viewing full contact sports
won't transition to real-world gaming of full contact robot football
able to play old style with crack-back blocking and roughing the
kicker. It could be that sometimes kickers need to be roughed to win
a game. Perhaps robots will be drones operated by remote controlling
players.
Team
sports played by remote controlled robot operators would be a
difficult intellectual challenge for the operators. It would also
create a research and development utility for making improvements to
the use of robotic controlled by humans directly in off-world
environments. N.A.S.A. should consider becoming involved with a
National Robot Football League. How useful would it be to have simple
robots to move solar panels into the sunshine in lunar crater
dwellings? I would think that knightly jousting might return when
killing the opponent doesn't involve a biological fatality and just a
mess of circuits and plastic reading a teleprompter's script.
Will
the power brokers resist robotic football leagues and planetary
exploration? Some people would expand mud-brick building economics
for the next 1000 years with an unrealistic notion of expansion
regarding environmental limits, many of those people are in the
broadcast media, yet like drug addicts given a new drug, if adapted
to new technologies and environmental rectification broadcast media
bloviators will religiously support the new tech dope. It may be hard
to believe the broadcast media would give up the Pharonic ideal of
new improved bricks mini-mansions in comfort for-themselves with
illicit, stupid broadcast prouder power that dies only when their
dessicated corpses drop them off the deep end unto eternal punishment
. Yet they shall give up persecuting the poor and homeless campers
yearning to be free of the broadcast media's existence so they can
live in a free society with equal opportunity when it becomes
counter-productive for them to remange as existential threats and
domestic ad hoc terrorists/organized crime above-the-law and legal
remdies. No problem.
Whenever
robot bodies increase their physicall skills, agility, durability and
so forth their use in making repairs to the outside of space stations
or in digging ditches or rescuing explorers on the moon, Mars, Venus
or the undiscovered moons of the undiscovered giant planet X
increase. Football is a very challenging and realistic field for
making robot bodies that work, and that increase the efficiency,
decrease the cost, improve the adaptability of the planetary and
space exploration tools.
When
grenade launchers putting out tennis balls are adapted to super-sized
gold courses and when artificial scuba diving saltwater ecosystems
are commercialized in northern locales the business of synthetic
gaming will have taken another step forward into the twilight zone of
games actualized in v.d.t.'s
