Winner's Sauce 

From the pages of Viz Comic, a "special ingredient" added by a restaurant/cafe/pub chef, solely of Y-chromosome, to a dish given to a famous and/or particularly disagreeable customer, namely a restaurant critic.

Takes its name from The Sunday Times restaurant critic and sometime film director, Michael Winner. A well-known trasher of both restaurants and chefs' reputations.
"See that Michael Winner over there? He's reckoned to have ingested more Winner's Sauce than Marc Almond"

winner's curse 

phenomenon in auctions where the person who wins usually pays more than the auctioned item is worth
Yea I went to an auction yesterday and they had this painting that I knew I could resell for $200 but some douchebag bid $1000 for it. Ridiculous. Whatever, dude just got a mean case of winner's curse.

winner's edit 

A term to describe when one particular contestant on a reality television show recieves a lot of camera time and is shown in a very positive light compared to the other contestants, and are only shown on the show when they are doing something good. This contestant goes on to win the reality show. The purpose of the "winner's edit" is to have the fans pleased with the final outcome because they find the winner endearing, when in reality (no pun intended) it only makes the show boring and predictable because it becomes pretty obvious who is recieving this winner's edit after only a few episodes. Antonymn: see loser's edit.
Person 1: I just watched the finale of Rock of Love 1! Guess who wins?

Person 2: *sigh* I didn't watch it, but clearly Jes won because she has a winner's edit. I stopped watching after episode 2.

Person 1: Yeah, all these vH1 shows stink because of the stupid winners' edits!

Winner's Dance 

When someone is so confident in winning a race or any other competition, that they dance in front of the finish line due to believing they'll cross it first. It is known to not end well for the "winner" as another competitor usually takes the "winner's" place right before they cross the finish line.

As a wise man once said: "winner's dance is a lie. It's the second place dance."
Joinen: "Winner's dance, colon, noun, did not win; but *did* dance. It's an activity actually. It's what you- It's a- It's a verb. It's a thing that you do. Uh, which is to not win, but to dance."

Winter's Law 

As a message board discussion over software - particularly sports simulations - grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Maximum Football or Daivd Winter approaches 1
Person One: "I bought this new game last night and it really stinks"
Person Two: "What's wrong with it?"
Person One: "It's full of bugs! It should have never been released!"
Person Three: "Sounds like Maximum Football"
Person Two: "Aha! Winter's Law!"
