How to fix soccer:
1. The field is too big, shrink it.
2. Too many players on the field. Limit it to two.
3. Paint the field in a black-and-white grid.
4. The ball is replaced by pure positional advantage.
5. Pawns everywhere.

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.
