Anyone else dislike the term "downhill running"?


Oct 3, 2015, 3:54 PM

I'm guessing it was coined by e$ECpn to explain "SEC speed".

It's just inaccurate. And annoying. So yes.***

What annoys me is "trickeration", there is no such word


Oct 3, 2015, 4:01 PM

The correct word would be trickery.

How 'bout all the -ability words


Oct 3, 2015, 4:04 PM

Escape-ability
Big play-ability
Suck-ability


Ok I'm gonna be honest, I made that last one up.

"Catching the ball at its highest point"

"He doesn't have speed but he has quickness"

"Partial deflection"

"The defense is pinning their ears back"

What is the alternative?


Oct 3, 2015, 4:07 PM

I don't like the alternatives

1) north south running?
2) one cut running?
3) straight ahead running?
4) load of sream running?
5) running running?
6) lots of inertia running?
7) straight ahead running?
8) slobberknocker running?
9) not passing running?
10) ain't skeered running?
11) tea party running?
