Games can be categorized by time continuity

Protests for free elections to Moscow's city legislature continue in Russia. On Saturday, 50,000 people gathered in Moscow

I think sports games can be categorized by time continuity. For example, a soccer game is played continuously and there is no break in continuity. Only the first half and the second half are roughly divided, but continuity is not separated for each set.

In tennis, there are things that players must not do during the game. That is a rally.

Don’t find a chance to have a drink and push a cheeseburger into the mouth1

  1. For baseball games, everything starts after the batter enters the bat. The time flow of a baseball game is discontinuous and chopped. When watching baseball, we can drink and eat snacks when the batter changes. But in the case of soccer games, there is no break in time continuity, so we often don’t find a chance to have a drink and push a cheeseburger into the mouth.
    There is a time break in tennis games. One set starts from one serve. Players and spectators are concentrated for each set. A tactic and strategy consisting of power, bargaining and psychological reading. This is interesting.
    In tennis, there are things that players must not do during the game. That is a rally. If the rally continues, the tactics and strategy will disappear, and the ball will only reciprocate. For the audience, it ’s not as boring as the rally.

  2. However, protests have spread to local cities such as St. Petersburg. Yesterday, dozens of people were detained in the city. It is a feature that the turmoil in a local election is no longer a problem only in Moscow, but is spreading throughout Russia.

  3. A dirty Moscow city council election will be forced. Protests against it will continue. However, the situation may have entered a situation like a rally. Unless both sides provide any solution, protests, and civil detention only go back and forth. As it is now, Russian authorities will have to detain all citizens, and protesters will have to meet after the election. That is because the situation has fallen into a rally.
    For example, unless a third party acts as an intermediary or an event that moves the situation occurs, the situation will not progress. Repeating the same will only exhaust everyone.
    What is the cause of this? Isn’t that one of the reasons for not having a forum? Such an exhaustion rally will continue indefinitely unless the executives and representatives of the protesters exchange words. Another problem could create a similar conflict. I feel like that.
    If there are tens of thousands of people protesting, why aren’t representatives coming out of them? No, there are representatives, but they were detained. I feel like there is a rallying cause in this misstep. What do you think?

In a tennis match, the rally will not last for an hour. The end of the rally is a failure that either one makes. The mistake may be intentional. Because no one can win unless the rally is finished and the tactic or strategy is executed. That’s right, no one can win even if the rally continues. That’s all for today’s post. Thank you
