If the ball's met full on, flush, headed back the way it came, chances are, it's in, you're 1-nil up...you don't faff around with your ABCs, CTEs like a bungling extra on Sesame Street, you brush yourself down, get your lads behind the ball, two banks of four and dig in deep till the whistle's done.
Coach,

Unfortunately, none of what you have written above addresses the issue. The issue is about the health of football labor. It is about the work condition and believe it or not cases are being filed in court on these issues. Fortunately, the football authorities are not seeing it the way you project above. They are taking it as serious as they should because not only is the health of labor important but they also realize that the survival of the game is dependent on acting on issues like this and not merely reminiscing on some football lore.

One guarantee is that the strength of the research will design the pathway on how this game will be played in the future. Make no mistake about it. The economics will assure that.
The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in. We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events -- Daniel Kahneman (2011), Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics

They are paid to do that.
