football numbers

a term used to describe a general amount of timesomeone is in jail for. Based on the large numbers in the double digits, from the numbers on players' jerseys in the NFL. It originally was used for saying how long someone had to do time, but over the years, it has unsuccessfully been used to describe other large numbers.

Other rumor has it that it came from the scoring pattern of the actual game of football, which is a touchdown is 6 points, and a field goal following is another point, basically making every touchdown about 7 points a score, which represents the years that someone gets in jail.

Law of Large Numbers

The rule that confirms that as the number of trials increases, the actual probability approaches the expected probability. If you flip a coin 1000 times, you might get 470 heads. Or 550 -- expected probabilities of .47 and .55, respectively. But, damn it, the limiting value of that probability as the number of flips increases without bound is going to be .5.
