Anciently, football was taken very seriously:

How today we can use science and technology as a game of speed and strategy everyone plays without blowing our planet up would be up to us.

In looking at that future, of science being in step with humanity, we're beyond this planet and using the gravitational technology to not die, number 1, and demonstrate we can last the longest in not dying, number 2, and number 3, to provide something inspirational to humanity to keep the game going.

I really think science should be like football.
Full of overpaid prima donnas following rules set in 1863.
Well, it's an unorthodox suggestion.

We're on the same page; thought about that, but managing a football side is knowing how to play the game....puts science in the cockpit though....more risk with science and tech in a global match I'm thinking. Some would say that's what we do already yet the public never hears about that game.

Football has rules of play, and yet the players can develop "new moves" upon the basic rule of the platform of the game. In football, we don't want a brawl.

Can science be denied a try because the public can't see it, because its too important for national security?

US football is different.

A lot of rules, not as free-flowing.

Good at umpiring if umpiring is transparent globally:

Opportunity seems to have mistaken this for a blog.
