To have a dangerously slow reaction to things that happen to you.
1984-Doctor: im sorry but you have late reaction syndrome.
Ted: i've never heard of that so its probably nothing.

1985- Jim: Hey Ted
(Punches Ted in the face)

2011-(Ted, as the white receiver playing in the superbowl. The score is tied up with 20 secs left)
Ted: Hell yeah, imma win this game for all yall!
(Ted runs out to the touchdown line. reaches out as the ball comes hurling at him. all of a sudden Ted feels face as if he is being punched in the face and flies backward from the pain)
