Broad Street Bullies

The Philadelphia Flyers teams of the 1970s. They were so mean, rough, and vicious that other teams were intimidated and scared shitless to play them.

First Edition (1972-1975) featured Dave "The Hammer" Schultz, Bob "The Hound" Kelly, Andre "Moose" Dupont, and Don "Big Bird" Saleski.

Second Edition (1976-1981) included Paul Holmgren, Mel Bridgman, Behn Wilson, Dave Hoyda, Glen Cochrane, and Ken "The Rat" Linseman. Those were the scariest teams in hockey history.

Third Edition (1981-approx. 1987) included Dave Brown, Rick Tocchett, Daryl Stanley and Craig Berube.

Man do I miss those days of the Broad Street Bullies and Big Bad Bruins.

Twit

Something akin to a nerd; someone who is very unhip and also oblivious to the fact that they are. Like a guy wearing shorts and black socks with a camera hanging from his neck walking around Disneyworld with his twitty wife and twit kids.

Look at those twits playing jarts in their back yard.
