What will happen in the world of sports in the next century? Will you be watching high-definition television, virtual TV, the Internet or some fancy new gizmo that's still a twinkle in Bill Gates' eye? Will you have to pay-per-view? What will be the national pastime? Football? Women's soccer? NASCAR with souped-up spaceships?Sports in the 21st Century aren't going to look like sports at the end of the 20th. The 20th Century saw an exponential boom of sports in America, and with technology and our thirst for entertainment exploding even more rapidly, there seems to be no stopping the juggernaut that has made us Sports Nation.
I'am talking about the effect of the Internet will have on the way we watch sports. It will expand the business of some companies that are engage in sports, instead of watching sports on a television network, you may see whistle-to-whistle coverage of volleyball, judo, online, viewed in your living room on a flat screen over the Internet. Television may not be a word that's in our dictionaries three or four decades from now.
This is not a daydreaming, the technology is being used already to put radio broadcasts over the Internet, and is on the near horizon with television. You may eventually be able to watch NBA on your computer when traveling on business here in Philippines.That's how fast technology is moving.
