TBC, I don’t watch or care anything about the sport. I am curious why it hasn’t gone to full military tech style communications between players and augmented heads up display style interfaces. It certainly isn’t due to a lack of money. It is like the ultimate battle tech. What could possibly be more American than mock battles over an inflated pig carcass with military tech shit? Like drone view of every player, in helmet view, isolated coms, and off site real time strategy. Sounds about as potentially popular as a consul or first citizen hosting naval battles in a coliseum IMO.

    Lol I want them to just start by having a fuckin sensor in the balls to know where and if the ball is spotted, if it was in play or out of bounds and if for nothing else, be able to spot exactly where shit like an out of bounds kickoff will get spotted. Now it’s just a dude standing 70-80 yds away guessing the angle it was kicked from and where it was when it crossed the out of bounds line.
