The Field-Hockey TV: A Democracy Equation!

Two potent avatars debate about the density of women's field-hockey access in the modern era of media-drinks.

A 'pirate-fable' about the social symbolism surrounding capitalism...and the special media-access 'diorama' it affords to the modern man. Enjoy (and God bless!),

Media fans cozied up to their TVs in the quarantine era in front of their fireplaces to enjoy broadcast live sports and replays in Europe and North America. They wore wool gloves and came home from work-days to spend weekends with sports-night campfires. After all, sports entreats our natural fascination with active lifestyle and designed fitness.

The capitalism era marked tragically by 9/11 reminded people of the value of broadcast TV and news and media and journalism. The world was commercially networked by movement of assets and treasures and gems. Everyone cared about the allure and luster of trophies and prizes! Super Bowl ad revenues went through the roof as the Brady-led Buccaneers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs.

TV/SPORTS FAN: I love watching women's international field hockey, because it captures a love of gender and dollars.

That sports-TV fan was correct in his assessment. In the age of commercialism and media and TV vanities, sports highlighted a focus on human factors and things like gender aesthetics. Women's sports became much more popular...and watched...because of TV and media. Quarantine-era defined the elevation of such idealism.

It's worthwhile to note therefore that the broad and global access to media-broadcast images of female athletes engaged in competitive sports on the international stage represents a civilization investment in the value and contours of access to human social activity. Turn on your TV, and you get breezes of women's sports at the collegiate and national level from countries around the world, gorgeous female superstars ready to bring trophies and endorsements home through the miracle of modern media.

Such widespread access requires strict and serious adherence to censors and TV standards. Female athletes don't wish to expose too much flesh and spirit while competing in televised games accessible to global audiences on the Internet and on regular TV. This is the complexity and profitability of modern media --- these aren't just sexy cheerleaders but involved female athletes in competitive action, broadcast everywhere.

You might catch an excellent World Cup women's field hockey tourney game between rivals Spain and England, featuring gifted and attractive female athletes doing their nations proud! A sports-TV fan will note his/her ability to take mental notes on such media-broadcast social activity. Do these adults who are sports-TV fans want their daughters to someday be televised in this modern media manner?

SPORTS CRITIC: There're so many talented and attractive women's field hockey teams on the global stage now and on media.

You don't have to be a rocket scientist or die-hard fan of Spain's national women's field hockey team or Belgium's national women's field hockey team to appreciate how Internet/media has afforded everyone on Earth easy access to these games featuring talented and attractive female celebrity athletes playing field hockey, a game of great teamwork, swiftness, striking, and defensive posturing.

What then would be the controversy if an anti-Western civilization terrorist accessed these images of beautiful athletes parading their gifts on TV/Internet for global audiences? Could they use it as fodder to hype the problem of media access to women across the world? There are nations and cultures after all which still frown upon public access to the female body/mystique even if it's at the competitive arena of international sports!

Take for instance the world-thief Sparrow, a mysterious masked underground operative who travels around Europe stealing diamonds from corrupt barons storing gems from South Africa. These 'blood diamonds' or 'conflict diamonds' are used to finance warlord regimes and sometimes terrorism. It's been rumored Sparrow, a real-life modern pirate, may be on the Interpol-payroll to intercept movements of baron blood diamonds across Europe, which is really sullying the global gem market and tarnishing modern capitalism itself! Sparrow also loves TV, media, and sports, and he's anonymously blogged on the Internet his special admiration of the convenient media access to international women's field hockey games, since he's a pronounced fan of the New Zealand and Spain women's national field hockey teams! Sparrow notes, "What makes me feel like a thoughtful 'vigilante-pirate' as I work with dangerous underground gems while enjoying media access to modern women's field hockey games is that these images of competition feed my natural fascination with the human splendor of democracy!"

Of course, not everyone's an intelligence 'officer' like Sparrow. Some are downright criminal. What then can we say about this liberal and pronounced media access to women's sports in the modern era and the television exposure of women's field hockey which is commented on by modern social scholars such as Emile Dartmouth?

FIELD HOCKEY PLAYER: I consider myself something of a media 'heroine' when I celebrate access to gender-ritualism.

This is the complexity which drew in two dark avatars to debate the social symbolism and democratic significance of this global access to gender-symbolic women's sports, field hockey, on the modern globalized media stage. These two avatars were Shiva, master of destruction and meditation, and the eerie Xenomorph, an intelligent but prowess driven alien intelligence with a special taste for Machiavellian empiricism. These two debate about how media access to women's field hockey not only represents commercial vanities...but significant dialogic dangers. Let's listen in on these two!

SHIVA: I like this pirate Sparrow who toasts media access in modern capitalism!
XENOMORPH: He's a real pirate...and fan of women's international field hockey.
SHIVA: Well, he's certainly an outspoken 'diplomat' of the modern media labyrinth.

XENOMORPH: It seems globalized access to commercial vanities represents real complexity.
SHIVA: The destruction of the World Trade Center was televised!
XENOMORPH: It was indeed.
SHIVA: So, what of criminals and terrorists finding similar access to media activity?
XENOMORPH: Are you referring to anti-Western terrorists?
SHIVA: Yes, and such individuals may target women in sports broadcast on media.
XENOMORPH: Even during the media-rich Coronavirus quarantine-era?
SHIVA: Especially during this media-symbolic period!
XENOMORPH: Well, what is the symbolism of broadcast sports in relation to capitalism?

SHIVA: It seems to be a question of choreographed divinity.
XENOMORPH: Divinity?
SHIVA: Sure; these televised women athletes are like angels of commercialism now!
XENOMORPH: That's not alien; we remember the high-days of Victoria's Secret.
SHIVA: As well as the iconic Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue glory-days.
XENOMORPH: Well, it seems to be a simple matter of dollar-measured gender disguise.
SHIVA: Is such disguise...dangerous?
XENOMORPH: It can be dangerous if terrorists measure photographed women as sirens!

SHIVA: Are celebrities potential 'sirens' for anti-capitalism dance?
XENOMORPH: It seems you're intrigued by the nature of media-enriched vitality, Shiva.

SHIVA: Aren't you a 'Devil's Advocate' of civilization choreographed socialized heresy, Xeno?
XENOMORPH: I am, and I think this question of media-gender vines speaks to censorship!

SHIVA: Is censorship a function of politics...or modern life?

XENOMORPH: Well, commerce/consumerism has made life rather politicized.

SHIVA: That's the 'edge' that a terrorist now seeks in modern civilization criticisms.
XENOMORPH: Perhaps we need a godly Cupid to sort out this mess of gender-disguise!

SHIVA: Or perhaps a proverbial Icarus to weed out the dollars...from the heresy.
XENOMORPH: It's not that complex maybe; maybe they're just 'Bond girls' on TV!
SHIVA: There shouldn't be controversy regarding social access to gender dollars.
XENOMORPH: True; but there's always controversy surrounding socialized...doctoring.
SHIVA: True!
