take a knee

An American football term for when the quarterback drops to one knee immediately after receiving the snap, thus automatically ending the play.

The use of taking a knee comes only near the end of a game when your team is in possession of the ball and holds a narrow lead (by a touchdown or less). If you execute a run or pass play, you risk turning the ball over and allowing the opposing team to gain possession and a chance to score. By taking a knee, you are able to run down the clock without putting the ball at risk.

A boring, if strategically important, play.

Coach: John, listen - we got 5 seconds remaining, pass the ball to Porter, Porter - you'll take a knee and end this game.

Players: Goooooooooooo........ Tigers!

The Walden Knee

n. The position that Ben "The Cig" Walden did while on the Stratford Academy football team between the years of 2004 and 2007. The "knee", as people call it, is still there today, cemented to the Eagle Field in remembrance of the gifted athlete.

"Everyone should do what Ben is doing over there. Yes, he is in the position of The Walden Knee."

knee trembler

A fast and furious act of sex in an alley way close to a nighclub or bar. Normally unfulfilled due to coitus interuptus from other couples attempting a knee trembler or a sudden onset of brewers droop or being moved on by the Police.

We had a quick knee trembler but the coppers chased us of before I copped off.
