    I'm working on a list of sayings or phrases in sports that are about sports, but sound dirty. So far, I have:

    Penetrate into the backfield
    Hit the hole hard
    Give the guy a blow
    Driving deep into their end
    Tight end

    Any sport is great. Football seems to be particularly rife with them, but anything is good. Thanks!

    :cool: Kobe's threads are full of them:
    "[Kobe] is hitting the backdoor all night."
    "[Kobe] is willing his way into the hole."

    "The Rockets are failing to put it in all night". (recently)

    "Texans' best weapon is ramming it in the middle."

    In CF.net:
    "Hathaway."

    In soccer:
    "Mexico can't penetrate the USA's back."
    "[forward's name] is asking for some balls, but no one is giving them to him."

    Couple from hockey (and hence too obscure perhaps).

    - "going five hole"

    - "butt-ending"

    "There's two balls on the batter."

    "He gave him the high hard one."

    "Brooks with the rimshot."

    "He started his career as a tight end, but now he is a wide receiver."
