So..........the word "smother" is an African word. Loosely translated, it means "To give up 24 points on Defense, while only mustering a field goal against a team's bench."
There is some debate amongst the world's leading linguists about the meaning of the phrase "On a Warpath". Some think it means "To get out Pancaked 29 to 5." or "To lose the Passes Defended battle 9-2." The most hotly debated translation is "To miss 22 Tackles, 7 by starting MLB John Spence whom is owned by team owner jspence."
I won't lie, even after being out for a few beers I think this post is a bit douche-baggish, but hey whatever works for you. I do need to adjust my record for this week to 4-3. This conference is ridiculously unpredictable at this point.
I thought this was a forum to talk smack on, not the Oprah Winfrey Show! My response had no name calling or cursing, it just creatively pointed out some stats of the game, which all Nigerians are proud of and all teams take pride in. It was pride for Madagascar that spirited the concurrence or your prediction of Nigeria's offense getting smothered.
It is too bad someone has to win and someone has to lose, maybe we could all upgrade our equipment to "kid gloves" and celebrate tie games singing Kumbaya!
