A three second view is not an audience

Strike rate hides the balls a batter never faced

You cannot recruit a sprint fibre in a gym

Pirated streams are an audience, and rights holders should count them

The trapezoid punished the wrong goalies

Skating backwards to go forwards is not a retreat

The long throw came back because nobody bothers defending it

The short roll is where good spacing actually pays

Teams are quietly buying back the offensive rebound

A blocked shot is an admission, not an achievement

Drift is a spinner's best weapon and it comes from the seam

Stick flex is chosen by feel and it should not be

An overlap is a decoy first and a passing option second

Hospitality money is sold long before anyone knows if the team is good

Spacing does not have to be horizontal

The two-lap race is where the textbooks break down

Goalie interference cannot be written down and everyone keeps trying

The serve is only a setup for the shot after it

The mid-range came back and nobody wants to admit it

Ageing takes your top speed long before your engine

Following one club now takes three subscriptions and a bad evening

The stream is behind and the noise next door gives it away

A three-point team can be better and still lose the series

Accessible seats keep getting built where the leftover space is
