I love my Detroit Lions, but my entire 30+ year fandom experience has been nothing but a sense of powerlessness to effect change. In comparison my time as a defensive tackle and defensive end was some of the highest agency I have ever felt in my life (obviously limited to the scope of the game). When I was in, I had the potential to on any down disrupt the play and potentially cause a turnover. Anyone who has ever played football at any level would never seriously tell you they have as much agency when the other side is on the field as when they are. That's hope and a prayer level stuff.I think there's definite ground to be covered on how for insistence having nailed down setting information that can be discovered and manipulated can provide potentially more agency in some situations then scene framed play in some situations. We can have those discussions, but seriously man please use better examples. That like broke my brain.</blockquote>
