Hawk Harrelson 

THE most annoying announcer, not just in baseball but in all of sports. Has coined some catchphrases so lame that they would even embarrass that fool Stuart Scott. Phrases such as "grab some bench" and "he gone". Wow, what a wordsmith you are, "Hawk". Gee Hawk, why don't you tell us about your awesome .239 career batting average, and how you gave up baseball to be a failure as a professional golfer.
Hawk Harrelson sucks so bad that he could be on ESPN.

Hawk Harrelson 

A homer of an announcer who would immediately complain on close calls against the White Sox by umpiring crews but says "thank you very much" towards blown calls in favor of the Sox.

Other "Hawk" Quotes
*AND THIS BALLGAME IS OVAH!!!!
*Duck snort
*Duck fart
*GAS

And the classic fan interference call...
*Never seen anything like that in my whole career, as a player coming up from Little League, to D-ball, to C-ball, to A-ball, to Triple-A, to the big leagues, never seen that. Well you still got three guys on the bases, they already called two of them out. … This is absolutely B.S…..Dadgum right this game’s gonna be played under protest. (6/24/07 vs Cubs – after double-play was reversed by the umpires after an interference call. The entire rant he would never mention the fact that Juan Uribe was in the direct path of Mark Derosa)
Hawk Harrelson: I just love when he goes back door

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."

Hair spider

A tight, tangled knot of loose hair and lint that forms inside clothing during the clothes dryer cycle. It typically hides inside garments, causing an annoying lump or a phantom tickling sensation against the skin until it is found or falls out onto the floor during folding.
