An utterly horrible phrase commonly used by television/radio broadcasters age 35 or greater. When a player subs out of the game, the naive analyst will eagerly explain to his audience that the athlete "is getting a blow" or "taking a blow" on the sidelines.
This is a terrible phrase because it is misleading everyone subjected to listening to the announcers and/or watching the game. While the athlete is not actually getting a blow-job from someone on the sidelines, thereby making the game interesting, he is merely getting a rest.

An annoying and meaningless but for some unknown reason widely used expression in sports journalism and commentary. A likely corruption of the much more sensible 'get on track', referring to an athlete or team playing better after a period of subpar performance.
Joe Theismann: 'On the other side of the ball, who would have thought we'd be wondering when the Colts' struggling offense will get untracked?'
Reader: 'WTF does that even mean, Joe?'
