A basketball widow is a woman whose man is figuratively married to the beautiful game. He can't tear himself away from the box except in extenuating circumstances (not including grabbing a can of beer during breaks)

My friend complains that she's now a basketball widow; once the game is on, her husband has time for no one and nothing else but his TV and his mentor with whom he analyzes each game all season long.

baseball widow

Baseball Widow: a woman who loses her husband, fiancée, or boy friend due to the start of baseball season.

Examples could be a man who watches baseball like its oxygen and a necessity of life.
A baseball player who is gone constantly at games, or practices.
Or a baseball coach who is gone every weekend, including some weekdays, for baseball games or tournaments.

Most men use this time to find peace within themselves at a baseball field, or on tv, and there have been several reports of casuatlies, and countless breakups/divorce due to baseball season approaching.

Woman talking to her friend...."Hey where's your husband? Why isn't he at your birthday party?"
Widow "it's opening day, I've become a baseball widow for the next 6 possibly 7 months."

Woman "why wasn't your husband at your mother's birthday party?"
Widow: "He has an out of state tournament with a team he coaches this weekend. Which means I get to slut it up, and he gets drunk after the games with the kid's parents. I'm a baseball widow now."

God Shot

A chance happening with profound meaning, an unexpected blessing, a "sign".

Dr. Drew on Celebrity Rehab said "All of a sudden what had been just another Hollywood proposal became for him an unexpected blessing, an opportunity for growth. In drug recovery language, that's called a "God shot."

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.

I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
