exit velo. how long till the gambling nuts come with a way to wager on this? i heard an ad the other day where some outfit in this biz offered 'if the football team that you bet on to win is ahead at any point by 10, we'll immediately pay you, even if they lose.' they should change exit velo to mean the odds on which player or manager might get tossed.
southpaw. so a righty is a northpaw? everrbuddy in Canada is righthanded and everrbuddy in Mexico is lefthanded?
dressage. when u hear this, hide ur wallet. and, it's not pronounced
'dress-age' like i say it. it's pronounced 'dress-ahhhhhge.' say it wrong, and any horse nut, even from the next county, will hear it, and immediately correct youse. really annoying. don't bring me to horse shows as i have a ridiculously high 'exit velo' for that.

i ain't got a prayer, and should prolly forget this game, too.
they don't use the word 'rough' correctly in golf. hitting off the t is rough. hitting in the fairway is rough. hitting out of a bunker is rough.
hitting a putt is rough. getting the honest score from anyone for the card is rough. drinking like a fish is rough. playing in a t-storm is rough. listening to the excuses that 'normally imma great player, but for some reason today im having troubles' is rough. retrieving ur ball from the edge of a pond in alligator infested Florida is rough.
they should change the name to 'ruff.' or 'lie.'
