Halftime checklist
from Notes on the Week Ahead · host Dr. David Kelly
With most of the planet glued to the World Cup, I’ve been trying in the last few days to revive an interest in the beautiful game that has lain fallow since my childhood. Like baseball, the more you watch it, the more you realize is going on and I sometimes pity the job of the coach who has to drink in and analyze all the action in the first half and then find some way to explain it to the team in a distracted 15 minutes of halftime.
