When 11 Simplifies To 6

We can sometimes over-complicate things a touch, can’t we? Austrian Ralph Hasenhuttl [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Hasenh%C3%BCttl] is the perhaps unlikely coach responsible for Southampton Football Club’s ongoing EPL revival. He seems to favour a flavour of Occam [http://salespodder.com/?s=occam]‘s

Change One Letter Or Word

Apparently dating back to 2005, one constantly recycled meme [https://twitter.com/hashtag/oneletteroff?src=hashtag_click] asks how funny you can make a film title or band name by changing just a single letter contained within. Seemingly since becoming labelled one letter off [https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/one-letter-off-movie-posters], even

Surgical Sales Planning

Thirty years ago certain knee injuries ended football careers. Ligaments going snap bringing down many an illustrious curtain. The most feared being the ACL. A ruptured anterior cruciate ligament.
