Is there any proof out there that a short corner is useful in any ways?

Just bring the ball straight into the danger zone. It's a no brainer for me. I'm always puzzled how many teams are trying this with little success.

I'm also not a big fan of positioning players near the goal posts.

It's classic loss aversion bias. Yes, there are instances where a goal can be prevented that way, but I feel the loss of possible gain is way bigger, since the players are missing elsewhere.
And don't even get me started on this.

Sacrificing a player just to prevent the very unlikely scenario that a free kick goal is scored below the defensive wall is ridiculous.

Imagine what this player can do instead. Like being ready for a counter attack. Image

Thanks to @kimbiddulph it’s #Archaeology31 time again! - Starting with prompt number one: #new.

Which in this case is: New year, new journal. Empty pages waiting to be filled with thoughts, notes, sketches ... opportunities. Image
#Archaeology31 day 2, #future, offers a great chance to highlight a topic I found particularly interesting as of late:

How will an #ArchaeologyOfTheFuture look like - What do *we* leave behind for future colleagues?

(Weekend reading recommendations included. 😉) Image
Starting with the question what actually constitutes #CulturalHeritage, #sites, and #monuments of our age ...

I started playing #guitar in college. Some of my friends back home played, so I thought I'd learn. It's been years since I kept up with it. With no job and an empty house, I had time. Plus, I could crank up my amp. Ava would have hated it. All the more reason to do it.

Strumming a few chords or playing a riff through a loud amp usually makes me feel better. It's more of a distraction this time. My amp is a little old. Even a #ragpicker might pass on it. "If you're not going to play it, sell it," Ava nagged. Life always got in the way.

Or I got in the way. Not even ten years ago I kept getting sick all the time. Painful stomach cramps would radiate weakness throughout my body. I learned how to wash it away like healing #rainwater. That's when I really started to figure out who I was and what I could do.
