Message: [QUOTE="RichZ, post: 2977745, member: 534"] I've mentioned it before, but "score the basketball" drives me nuts. There is no context in which it makes any kind of sense. Don't hear this one quite as much since Fudgy left, but, "He almost got away with a travel there," used to make me throw things at the screen. Just taking apart the words, it should mean that a player traveled when the referee was looking the other way, but then at the last instant,the ref caught it out of the corner of his eye and blew the whistle. What he usually meant, was the guy traveled and didn't get called for it, even thought he ref was looking at him. [/QUOTE]
