The Amalamps's definitions
A predecessor to state-run lotteries in the 1960s and '70s that thrived in poor neighborhoods.
The number was determined on a given day, by taking the second and third digits from the total amount of money in bank clearances from a predetermined bank, and the third digit in the Federal Reserve Bank's credit balance. On a day when the bank clearings were $589 million and the Fed's credit balance $116 million, the "89" from the first amount was combined with the "6" of the second to establish the day's winning number, 896.

Get the Mathmug. The unfortunate circumstance of a defensive player who is carrying the football carelessly en-route to a touchdown after a turnover and an opposing player comes from behind and punches the ball out.
On 10/3/2010 49ers d-back Nate Clements intercepted a pass at mid field in a game against the Falcons with little time left on the clock and a lead. Had he run out of bounds, his team would have easily gone on to win their first game of the season. Nate Clements instead chose to return the interception and while waiting for blocks to set up, was chased down by Roddy White and Nate Clements-ed. The falcons would go on to win on a field goal.
