We have a bunch of lingo and nicknames that we use when we're yelling at the screen while watching games, and that we'll use throughout the site. Below are the ones you'll need to know.  If you have any that you use that are particularly good, let us know at outsports@yahoo.com.

Captain Clueless Have you ever WATCHED Bills' coach Wade Phillips? If so, you know why we call him this.
The Chump    Cyd's nickname for Doug Flutie - he says Flutie's a running back masturbating as a QB.
Drewboy Drew Bledsoe, Jim's lust object.
The Gleam Marty (see below) said this before a game to his team:  "we gotta have the gleam."  It's what a team has when it pulls a game out of its ass.
Marty Marty Schottenheimer.
The Messiah When Jeff George started his first game for the Vikings, our friend Steve (a lifelong Vikings fan) proclaimed that George was "The Messiah."
Pull a Sehorn Bonehead play.  (Against the Eagles in 99, Sehorn caught and interception and ran it out of the endzone - only to lateral to a phantom teammate and have the ball roll back into the endzone for a safety.)
Woofin' What you do when your team is doing well, and you're rubbing it in your friend's face.
Z Dr. Z, a.k.a. Paul Zimmerman, the best NFL columnist out there right now.
