We trained our models on European stats… but forgot that South American talent dances barefoot on muddy pitches, not in spreadsheets. Messi’s soul isn’t quantified — it’s hummed in samba rhythms no algorithm can sample. You don’t measure heart with rebound metrics. You measure what? (Hint: It’s not height. It’s hunger.) So… when did we stop seeing the player… and start seeing the spreadsheet? 😅
