Grandma had thrown a kidney punch.

“We’re not bleeding. We got a kidney punch, we got the wind knocked out of us, but we’ll get our wind back.”

There’s some pushback from players if you focus merely on the violence and ignore the grace, efficiency, precision, endurance and strategy that ultimately decides whether a team is elite in ways that an underwater kidney punch can’t.

It was an emotional kidney punch and I don’t know how or if I should forgive her.

Some positions felt like a kidney punch.
