Too bad that the term, itself, riles you so, Dickay,...you can't enjoy watching
t.v. very much if you're irritated by a minor misnomer from a commentator...
Do the terms "Tater"; "Heater"; "Boots the Ball", also upset you?
Why sweat the small stuff?....why not give up suffering?...derive the most fun that you can, from the game?
I don't mind you saying "tomato", as long as you'll forgive me saying "tamale":)
