Yeah, and your definition was OK, but lacking in depth. Being Patlerized by Patler means having your position dissected down to the last, seemingly trivial detail. Each incorrect assertion, assumption, claim, hint, suggestion is individually addressed and refuted, typically with multiple sources, all linked. Every argument is described and deconstructed and every false or incomplete point is laid bare, like an open wound, painfully visible for all of the packerrats forum to see. Most often, one must look away, for to hold your gaze on the dismembered, disemboweled, twisted wreck of a destroyed posting is to be suddenly and violently ill. Being Patlerized is like being stalked by a terminator; coldly, mercilessly and relentlessly will Patler pursue you and your weak or fraudulent argument. He will post, then re-post, the rebut, then re-rebut.. He doesn't get tired, he doesn't feel remorse, and he doesn't quit until your arguments are dead.

A Bretsky curse, of course, is an enthusiastic endorsement of a player who subsequently fails. Its exact etymology, origins and archetypical examples I leave to others, but its usage demurs and hedges one's own enthusiasm for unproven players, as in "I don't want to put a Bretsky curse on the guy but this kid Bostick has great instincts and is gonna be remembered here down the road".
[QUOTE=George Cumby] ...every draft (Ted) would pick a solid, dependable, smart, athletically limited linebacker...the guy who isn't doing drugs, going to strip bars, knocking around his girlfriend or making any plays of game changing significance.
Would be nice to update the first post to include all of this great info. New people might actually use it

Slocum haunts the team to this day. Its downright eerie.
Polar Bear: Mostly non-affectionate nickname for Ted Thompson. Initiated by Tank (aka Anti-Polar Bear) as a derogatory reference to the man who signed Matt O'Dwyer to a contract instead of Marco Rivera. If comparing those two players directly and reading the insinuation that Thompson preferred O'Dwyer to Rivera as a player makes your mind melt, then you understand what Polar Bear usage is all about. Brave members of the board have tried to take back the name and give it a more positive usage.
Next up: Frankenbacker!

Love this one Chan.
Don't think "Deelywhopper", needs to be added to the glossary, but it's a Wisconsin word all the way.
Purple Jesus is the internet bestowed nickname for Adrian Peterson, given his dominance as a running back almost immediately in his career. He battered the Packers enough that even kool-aid drinking Green and Gold fans had to admit he looked positively divine while waiting for Packer defenders to overcommit, then cut back against them for huge yardage. Combination of speed and power was astonishing at times.
We will cover a later chapter of the Royal Color son of Jim Brown in a later entry for PackerRats Glossary.
Next up: Pad Level

In many of MM early pressers any and all issues with line play can be addressed and in theory fixed by changing their pad level. This evolved to a short way of saying MM evaded or ignored the question at said pressers. I think he is the most secretive of all head coaches now...
Next Up: The meadow

C'mon people! Let's get this in gear! We haven't even gotten to wist's best work yet!
Rand has to have a comment about the Meadow. And woodbuck will have a lot to say when he comes back from his summer residence in midseason.
