Can we drop this. It's a competitive/athletic term that I used in slang form. As long as we get more "Dawgs" in the future, all will be well.

You must operate with a level of toughness in everything you do, you can't make any excuses, and you have to earn the right to be good-Archie Miller Sure it is used in sports. When Isiah was coaching the Pacers he made the comment "We have to many "pretty" players, we need some Dawgs. He was talking about guys who compete until they have nothing left. Guys who battle for every possession. Who are relentless on defense. Who don't back away from a challenge. The Pacers got Ron Artest, who fit the description, but had issues. But that is the basic idea. Another good description is your own signature here on the forum. "You must operate with a level of toughness in everything you do....."

I grew up playing sports with and against many African American players. The term may be more prevalent in that environment. The Isaiah Thomas quote is exactly what I'm talking about. Then again, maybe not. Did you play sports? Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners Quote
