Why Your Favorite Sport Is Actually Terrible Business
Picture Manchester City's 2011 season hanging in the balance. Roberto Mancini, the old-school Italian manager, receives data showing that inswinging corners score more goals than outswingers. He dismisses it-decades of playing experience told him otherwise. Yet reluctantly, he makes the change. City wins their first Premier League title in 44 years. This moment captures soccer's uncomfortable relationship with reality: the world's most beloved sport has been run by people who prefer gut instinct to evidence, tradition to innovation, and comfortable failure to uncomfortable success. While Billy Beane revolutionized baseball with statistics, soccer remained stubbornly resistant-until recently. The beautiful game is finally developing its analytical dashboard, revealing uncomfortable truths about how the sport actually works versus how we imagine it does.
