Veretax Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I saw this on espn and just had to share it. Phrases My personal Favorite is: Wood hauler's butt: Usually refers to an offensive lineman who has no appreciable rear end. When you arch your back while carrying firewood, this is the result. Example: "Cowboys right tackle Marc Colombo has a wood hauler's butt, but still deserves to be treated like a human being." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rook Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 This probably the wrong forum. However, my favorite was: Double-catches: Bobbles the ball before securing it. Example: "Double-catches give defenders time to break up plays and triple-catches give Cowboys safety Roy Williams time to make plays." :helmet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeMarco Murray 29 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I like this one ... Flatten the corner: The ability of a pass-rusher to lower his inside shoulder and bend his knees while turning the corner on a blocker who's leaning on him. Example: "Cowboys linebacker DeMarcus Ware knows how to flatten the corner against offensive tackles and also finds time to buy every shirt that Lacoste makes."

Mr. S Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 it wasn't on the list, but my personal favorite is "upside". You can pretty much take any draft prospect, and sum them up saying "they have great (hands, mechanics, footwork, vision) and Upside, but they lack (speed, strength, agility, mechanics). Basically, you can say any prospect has upside. It may be true, but the word is still dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
