Additional time added to the end of a soccer (football) game. Since soccer has a constantly running clock that stops for nothing, alot of "playing time" is wasted away for any these reasons: injuries, a goal scored and the celebration that follows, arguing with officials, substitutuons, red and yellow cards, and taking forever on throw-ins, free kicks, corner kicks and goal kicks. (as well as a few other posibilities)
This added time ia supposed to make up for some of that wasted time.
Stoppage time can be anywhere from 1 minute to 5 minutes long, but is not exact. It always just seems like the referee can stop the game randomy, and know one but him knows when the game will be final.

Person 1: I wish that soccer had a clock that actually stops when a problem arrises or nothing is going on.
Person 2: Yeah, that whole stoppage time thing doesn't make a lot of sense.

Get the That's a good story, tell it again mug.Nickname of legendary Panamanian boxer Roberto Duran. In spanish, it translates to "Manos de Piedra". Generally recognized as one of the greatest lightweights to ever have lived, he won all his title matches in the lightweight divison, all but one by kayo. While Roberto Duran's original nickname was Rocky, as he began knocking out guys left, right and centre at 135, it became "Manos de Piedra" or "Hands of Stone".
There have been many great lightweights in boxing history: Joe Gans, Benny Leonard, Pernell Whitaker; and of course the legendary Hands of Stone, Roberto Duran.

Get the hands of stone mug.A song by the supergroup audioslave, argueably thier most well known song among audiences and generally a fan favorite along with "be yourself","show me how to live" and "cochise" by the band.
rumoured to be about the death of Layne Staley, however, lead singer chris cornell denied this saying "I wrote this long before his death". the true meaning is the idea of being isolated in a room, waiting for death to come, "like a stone", hence the title.
