President Warren G. Harding's definitions
A term invented by American sports-writers, used within college sports.
"Mid-Major" was originally used because no one had a good term to describe a college or conference less powerful than the BCS college/conferences, but more powerful than the next level down. The Division I-A non-BCS conferences, as of 2007, are the Mountain West, Conference USA, MAC, WAC and Sun Belt.
Sports writers and fans alike often express distase for the term, but no one has been able to come up with anything better yet.

1) The mid-major conferences had a good year in 2006, when Boise State upset Oklahoma in their bowl game.
2) Why does Michigan keep scheduling those mid-majors early in the season? Schedule a real team, already!

Get the Yahooable mug.The arbitrary name given to the NBA's Seattle Supersonics after they were stolen by a lying, dishonest, manipulative Oklahoma City businessman. So named because in a state as boring as Oklahoma, the most interesting thing anyone could think to name their only pro-team after was the weather.
The theft was so blatant and offensive that even local Oklahoma City residents expressed discomfort with acquiring a pro franchise in such a manner, having been previously rooting for the New Orleans Hornets during the temporary Katrina-related relocation of 2005-06.
Seattle residents still vent with rage over the actions of the OKC businessman and the former Sonics owner. Even renowned sports columnist The "Sports Guy" Bill Simmons refuses to call the team by their new name, referring to them in all print as the Zombie Sonics.
In short, every sports movie ever made has a villian who is threatening to move the team for no good reason. The OKC Thunder are permanent, living proof that bad guys really do win in real life.

Trent: Yo, you wanna go to the game tonight? Lakers are starting their 3-game homestand.
Kent: Eh, dunno, who are they playing?
Trent: Oh.... oh. The OKC Thunder. Never mind then, man, I don't want to support that shitty team, even on accident. Let's go watch football instead.

Get the OKC Thunder mug.The universe of characters centered around the fictional Dr. Frasier Crane. This character appeared on "Cheers," "Wings," and the eponymous sictom "Frasier." Any characters from these shows, and therefore any additional shows in which those characters appeared or were referenced in, are within this fictional reality.
"I know Lowell Mather (Thomas Haden Church) never actually met Sam Malone (Ted Danson), but they could have; all existed for years within the Frasierverse."

Get the strip tase mug.A now-defunct collegiate football conference in the U.S.
Formed in 1907 as the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association, the only charter members to still remain upon its dissolution in 1996 were the Tigers of the University of Missouri, the Cornhuskers of the University of Nebraska, and the Jayhawks of the University of Kansas.
Despite numerous changes in membership during its 89-year history, it kept its name (officially) throughout, and in fact still had eight members in 1996 when it dissolved, combining with remnants of the Southwest Conference to form the Big 12.
Though the Big 12 was only the Big 8 plus Baylor, University of Texas, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech, the Big 12 did not claim the Big 8's history as its own, thus ending its existence.
