Quote of the Day: Associated Press

It’s about football.

Headline: KANSAS CITY ENJOYS BIGGEST COMEBACK IN TEAM HISTORY

filed by Associated Press, 12 September 2016

The writing below is an exercise in concision:

It took Kansas City 10 plays to march 75 yards in overtime. Smith finished it with his plunge from the 2-yard line, keeping the ball rather than pitch when the smallest of creases opened.

And that is how to let readers know — in two sentences — how a play went down.

Stay tuned, dear blog readers. Stay tuned.
