Comment on The Debacle of Blue Clay (2020) [video]

Comments

So they put salt to protect the blue dye from being washed out by the rain. That made it slippery when wet and therefore the wrong people won. So they banned blue clay, so the right people won again.

This is a bit funny. I like anyone hate when rules change, but it's good because it keeps people on their toes. Sports (and human games in general) are weird, and somehow never really about the best person winning.
