Our Reading
The habit gets a new name.
Referees blow whistles late. Players don’t hear them. Fans blame the officials. Penalties happen. The game goes on.
Some plays are costly. Others are just inconvenient. The system keeps moving.
Players try to read minds. Officials try to be heard. Fans try to make sense of it all.
Football is a game of timing. Sometimes, the timing is off.
