as sports mature participants become more robotic


alex higgins, steve wozniack, jimmy white ----- the recent lot

steve davis was the boring exception -- now he is the norm.

john macenroe, sampras, goran, conners, borg, mecir --- current robots

lendl was the boring exception - now he is the norm.

piquet, mansell, james hunt, senna --- the current robots

see the pattern . later methods are more professional + strict and more people enter for the money + profession rather than for fun.

this can be seen in the genealogy of best to giggs to ronaldo .

skill went down, effectiveness went up, strength went up, robotic-ness went up.

:hubie:

p.s. mecir

The academies play a crucial part in this. They make you learn the "new basics", through re-education.
