Yesterday Capn Crunch said the phrase your killin me whitey, your killin me and asked who said it. I was thinking who is whitey? Whitey Ford? Forget who said it first.

This got me to thinking what are some other famous ones from the past many are not familiar with, what sport it might pertain to or anything. Some are in use today I bet and no one knows the exact orgin. Like for example what does the phrase 2 for Larue mean and what sport does it pertain to. ( I know this one) Who is famous for saying "here they come spinning out of the turn." Stuff like that.

Share with us please. Everyone for that matter lets see what we can come up with.
