Word of the Day


During the NFL Draft Combine this past week (yes, watched some of it…. guilty as charged), NFL Network draft guru, Mike Mayock, noted that a particular defensive back who was on display exhibited “tremendous alacrity” while performing the shuttle drill.

Upon hearing that, you would have most certainly agreed with us that arm-chair General Managers in living rooms across the country were stumped.

Did Mayock mean that the kid was an exceptionallly unbidden and sanguine participant in the drill or….. did he mean that he executed the drill expiditiously and with a degree of efficacy such as to be noteworthy?

Thanks for clearing that up, Mike.

The correct answer is b. expeditiously and with a degree of efficacy. However, the use of the modifier "tremendous" seems superfluous in this context. Also, the word is more traditionally used as follows, "The athlete executed the drills with alacrity."

You would be correct B-Daddy, though, the defensive back of subject was also reportedly to have said the shuttle drill was "off the hook" lending some support to Mayock's use of the word in its most comprehensive and fullest application.
