    "Patlerized." Being proved false by facts and data. "You've just been Patlerized" means that someone proved you wrong in a way that leaves you little to no room to save face.


    Next up...... the Bretsky Curse

    Nicely put. You can be Patlerized by someone other than Patler, but the odds are its going to be Patler. I think he would be OK with this definition. Though I bet he would want logic and clear thought to get a shout out.


    So next up is Bretsky Curse!
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    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".

    Fuckdoggle is a player who comes into the league with little or no acclaim and against all odds make the roster and then contributes in games. The ultimate Fuckdoggle would be an undrafted white wide receiver, although variations are allowed.

    Next Up: Koolaid Drinker.

    'subsequently fails' doesn't quite cut it! The so-endorsed player will fail spectacularly, on or off the field, with extra points for assault related charges
