Wheeling my shopping cart down the aisle at the supermarket this week, I was forced to take notice that it was, indeed, football season.
With my attention distracted by a flashing soda display, my cart crashed into the corner of a miniature football field, constructed entirely out of beer cases.
Untangling my cart (and trying to shove the cases back into line before anyone noticed that I’d creamed the goalpost), it occurred to me that I could learn a lot about goals from football players.
