SCENE
AMERICAN FOOTBALL
Perfect
Form
Maybe I’ve been watching from the wrong angle.
Bent over.
Legs spread.
One hand on the ball.
The other making absolutely certain we know where to look.
The real angle
Formation
I’ve never understood American football.
Too many pauses, too much padding and too many rules for a game that keeps stopping just as it gets going.
But strip away the armour and suddenly the formation makes perfect sense.
Three reasons
to keep watching
The stance.
The strength.
The invitation disguised as sport.
Maybe I’ve been watching it from the wrong angle.
