a term mostly used to describe a white professional athlete who lacks a discernible skill but makes up for it with passion and fire. Often the athlete is undersized. Comparable to "Bulldog" or "Sparkplug." White people love to overvalue these athletes contribution to their respective teams and always include a reference to intangibles.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.
