The counter for a single or double leg takedown in wrestling. Done right, it puts you in a dominant position on top of the opponent.
Yesterday I sprawled on that wimp, landed on top, turned him over and put him flat on his back for the pin.

Lane came back to see nathan sprawled on his bed with butter in his belly button and his schlong in his right hand. Lane thought it was rad so he hopped on and took it for a ride

When black people are scared they do the "Sprawl". The scare results in them jumping with their feet landing wide apart, arms stretched out, and in a slight ducking position.

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.

When a woman on public transit uses the seat and/or seats next to her to store her purse, handbag, backpack, etc in complete and utter disregard for the actual paying customers of said public transit that are left standing because their Coach bag is too expensive to put on the floor.
I was on the bus the other day and a lady had her purse taking up the TWO seats next to her, in typical Female Sprawl fashion. I politely asked her if she could move it and she refused. I then told her that if it doesnt have a fucking ticket, i'm sitting on it.
