The world is a canvas yet most of us just view the work of others and stay passive creators becoming wells of unlived life. Lets draw from our reservoirs and water our imaginations

metal v man Basquash part 1
It is funny how i was thinking along these lines and then
i finally decided to start watching^^ the show without knowing what it is about
and the thought i was having was about the future of sport
because with technology
it will soon become common place or will it
for those who follow football this has been the case over a certain subject
goal line technology
for technology is used outside of the game but not directly in the game
except for the substitution extra time electronics board
and the radio pieces with the referees and fourth officials
and it was only a short time before that food science and all the apparatus that goes with it
was being utilised in the beautiful game
which got me thinking how far will it go
for what new things will be come through after having its way paved through by goal line technology
for technology is used in a variety of sports from cricket to tennis to snooker
but how far will it go
or could it go
for the most part sports are the centerpieces for human achievement
and altering is seen as criminal and is victimized from
the donned drug cheats
but this idea has been teatering with me prior and others when
when he was allowed to run with able bodied athletes
and this where we meet this anime we find a world albeit for the first episode where a once
human sport is now a techno human sport
as evident with this << imagery
and you see the crowds
and packed out stadiums
and it got me thinking
would i or others watch a techno sport
and i wonder what would happen to certain sport affairs
if technology were allowed in
certain gifts would be obsolete
and right now in most sports
we have a cycle
where as old players go new come in
and in football thirty can be your prime and by forty if you are not a goal keeper you are looking to retire
but with technological advancements
we can dream of or speculate on
that may not be the case
and imagine the football age through technology changed from forty to sixty
or eight
what a shift it could be
yes fans would see their players for a longer time
but what shape would it leave the cycle in
what kind of orbit
for would the philosophy of sport need to change
or would it evolve
or would limiters be put in place
for example you can not use performance enhancing drugs now
but will that always be the case
what if instead of being labelled drug cheats the culture embraces them
what then
and would the not performance drug enhancers
become a niche league
for the purist
but would be less publicized and polarized
imagine a reversal where the able bodied 100 meters was the one least watched and the cheetah legged 100 meters was the one people were in anticipation for
and perhaps as with greek wrestling being dropped by the olympics that too would happen
where their would be retired times
for example a retired time for the usain bolt era
where one would bulk up muscle legitimately and may have natural talent
and then a enhanced drug era
where drugs where rampant but when the body could go no further
they retire that time
and move on to the bionic limb era
where the cheetah leg is adapted and revolutionized as if it were formula one
till maybe it is no longer running but actually flying
but not to go off on the deep end just yet
what of football
for in basquash so far in episode one
human basket ball
and bfb as they call it is all the rage drawing in crowds
the basketball court is empty and abandoned
and that is the scare for many people not in sports as so far yet but with jobs with the rise of technology
people are like
but is it need for war or a time for embracing
for imagine if technology ran rampant in football
it could be like the athletics scene
where we see bionic limbs added on to people
maybe even contacts like in minority report but help you aim your shots and free kicks
or just this <<<<<<<
one clip that epitomizes this is
