Sprawl and Brawl 

A term used to describe a fighting style in the sport of mixed martial arts. A "sprawl and brawl" fighter's goal is to avoid takedowns, remain in a standing position and strike with his opponent. Therefore, he will try to avoid takedowns by sprawling and other defensive grappling moves.

The sprawl is employed when a grappler shoots a takedown aimed at the sprawl and brawl fighter's legs. The sprawl and brawl fighter shoots his legs back and positions himself on top of his opponent's frame to avoid the takedown.

The sprawl and brawl fighter then gains separation from his opponent and tries to strike or "brawl" with his opponent while standing.

The term sprawl and brawl owes much of its origin to the martial arts style termed "ground and pound" which has earlier origins in the sport.
"Chuck Liddell can sprawl and brawl better than anyone else in the sport."

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."

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.
