He said six hole and eight hole.
Correct because the holes a RB hits are numbered. They start with the zero hole on the left and go right.

I was sitting here repeating it over and over with my best Beavis impersonation. LOL The wife has concluded that I am a bigger idiot than he is.

I remember a 24 dive was my upback to the right, b/c even numbers were to the right for us. And the higher the number the higher out. 38 sweep, sweep all the way to the right obviously.

I played defense sparingly, dont they use A gaps, and B gaps for d line?

Yesterday I heard Aikman talking about the Eagles and about their blocking (I believe): "They love to go down on you."

Then a few seconds later, he was talking about their excellent "penetration." It was a classic combo that had me chuckling.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

If they don't replace Madden soon, he's gunna die one of these nights in the booth. It's painful listening to him.

Madden also said that both teams were "pounding away" at each other.

Football is full of sexual references. It's part of the sublimal appeal of the game. I forget them all but they actually did a clip on that one time. Many of the terms were developed to have that appeal. Penetration is one of the favorites but there are many. Spread formation, in the crease, etc.

What they said when Georgia Frontiere(sp?) gave the assistant coach that long awaited promotion?
