Gameday Jargon Day! Titans @ Jaguars

It's Monday night again and this time you're watching Tennessee and Jacksonville, the two teams in the NFL that hold the distinction of being the least known by me. Let's see what the Encyclopedia has to say about this! FACT TIME!*

Tennessee Titans:
Fact #1: used to be the Houston Oilers.
Fact #2: figured in one of the most thrilling finishes in Super Bowl history. And lost.
Fact #3: Quarterback "Vince Young is a bright, young NFL star."

Jacksonville Jaguars:
Fact #4: one of the newest teams in the NFL.
Fact #5: never won a Super Bowl.
Fact #6: I always confuse them with the Panthers.

Enough trivia. You came here for JARGON! Well, if you see a guy successfully outrunning everyone else, just remark on his lateral agility. I busted this one out at a football party Saturday night and got me some sports expert cred points. Try it out for yourself.

I would have come up with more phrases for you, but I was too busy being weirded out by pitcher Brian Wilson's Incredible Plastic Pirate Beard and its limitless power to transform him from hot guy into Saturday morning cartoon villain.
