About forty years ago a new phrase entered the lexicon of football fans. Because of a single moment in an NFL game between the Cowboys and the 49ers, aficionados of the game still talk about “The Catch”.
If you’re a football fan, nobody needs to explain to you what “The Catch” refers to. You already know.
Now I think a new phrase is entering our popular lexicon — “The Slap”. When you say “The Slap”, everybody knows exactly what you are talking about.
And there’s a good chance that people will still know about it in another forty years.
