Geno Smith's Arm Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I keep hearing this term being used in reference to football. It started last season, and has become a term I hear in just about every other football article, and it has popped up on this board a lot lately. It sounds truly fruity, and makes the people that use it seem like tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geno Smith's Arm Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 +2 Ummm...Ya Think?! Is there any term fruitier than the the word "Swagger" Fruitier. Where do I mention homosexuality? In fact, I would hope that we start hearing about how "Butch" the defensive line is becoming. Maybe "butch" will become the hot new word in sports.

bizell Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 even though this isn't about the topic, i cannot stand when someone/something is being described as 'poised' or 'having poise' anymore. i immediately go into an eye roll, mainly due to the people that justified trent edwards' non-producing by him having a lot of 'poise'.

People at work using the word swagger in casual conversation out of the blue is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Is there really a position called Tight End? REALLY? TIGHT END? An ex-girlfriend of mine said they are all TE's. Where do I mention homosexuality? In fact, I would hope that we start hearing about how "Butch" the defensive line is becoming. Maybe "butch" will become the hot new word in sports. The word "fruity", in the context you've used it in, is a homophobic term for gays. even though this isn't about the topic, i cannot stand when someone/something is being described as 'poised' or 'having poise' anymore. i immediately go into an eye roll, mainly due to the people that justified trent edwards' non-producing by him having a lot of 'poise'.
