1) American
football defensive
line formation popularized by former Tennessee Titans and current Philadelphia Eagles coach Jim Washburn.
Formation requires defensive ends to
line-up "wide" on the outside shoulder of offensive tackles. Ends also typically lineup in a three-point stance with heads curled to the ground.
This offers
line a better angle for rushing the passer, but leaves the interior of the line vulnerable to the inside running game, especially if linebackers are inferior.
2) Rear-entry sexual position in which the recieving partner spreads his or her legs as far as possible, while crouching in a three-point stance, with their back slightly arched, and head curled to the ground.
Requires recieving partner to have
great leg strength, and leaves both parnter subject to injury if performed on a non-sturdy surface, such as a water
bed.
"The Philadelphia Eagles wide-
nine formation has not been successful, due to the horrific play of their linebackers and safeties."
"If you want me to get into a wide-nine, get your ass on the floor. I almost pulled a hamstring trying that shit the last
time. You need to get rid of that water
bed, anyway."
