pulling a Dusty

In major league baseball, the act of letting a young pitcher throw too many pitches in a given start.

In reference to Chicago Cub manager Dusty Baker who has a reputation of recklessly letting young pitchers throw too many pitches, thus putting their long term health in jeopardy (ex. Mark Prior, Kerry Wood).

Jim Leyland was pulling a Dusty by letting Justin Verlander throw 175 pitches in his last start.

Pulling a Truckle

Getting lucky kills while playing x-box with your friends and trying to obscenly rub it in their face. This is mostly done on Call of Duty by repeating "Did You watch the Kill Cam?" over and over again.

Jake: Ha I just killed you from across the map. Did you watch the Kill Cam?

Ryan: No Jake, i didn't watch the kill cam, I went on living my life you blazing homo. Stop pulling a Truckle

To ditch in an dickheaded way.

Example:
Me: Bear you coming tonight?
Bear: Yeah! Ima be there!

That Night.
Me (over the phone): Where are you?
Bear: I told you I had plans!
Me: Wow are you Pulling a Bear...
