Today I was watching the NFL post-season games and my wife asked me why the score was negative. I didn’t think much about it, telling her it is supposed to designate who has the ball.

Then tonight, I came across a Reddit thread with the same scenario and it made me realize how terrible of a design this is. Just goes to show how a design one thinks is clear can be confusing to others.
