Before reading the additional details, I would have said:\n\nIn the red refers to a negative balance as far as money.  Therefore Less in the red would refer to getting closer to breaking even.\n\nHowever... I've never heard of the saying you mention.

I suspect this is a poetic expression that refers to the attitude of the person when he/she made the smile.  Think of the person wanting to say "Take that!" while smiling.  This is a way of expressing revenge, more or less.

Wd means withdrew (from the tournament).  tae is the spot that would probably have the reason that they withdrew.  For example, ill. would mean illness.  The person that won did that because their opponent defaulted.  I'm not sure what the "tae" was there for, but it probably had to do with the reason they withdrew from the tournament.

I am scratching my head on this one!  Why are some of these people saying that you have no chance?  \n\nFirst off...this is FANTASY football and any good manager should know that on any given week no team is unbeatable.  Sooo...those saying you have no chance whatsoever are already showing that they know very little about fantasy games.\n\nWhile on paper your opponent has the edge this week....the odds are still at worse 40/60 of you pulling out a win.  Good luck!

actually this question was AOL's home page the other day I believe. The saying came from the horse racing track. People would offer a tip and a horse that would win and if was an insider ( jockey, trainer, ect)  or reliable tip they would say it came "straight from the horses mouth"

Suppose there were three horses running in a race. If you put money on each one of them to win, place or show, you are guarenteed to win three times because each of them will win, place or show. That is hedging a bet. I'm not sure why they use the word 'hedging', but that is the general idea.

I found this site and quoted the site,  Please see the url in sources to find more information\n""Horseshoes were also considered lucky because they were made by blacksmiths, which is also considered a very lucky trade. Because they worked with elemental fire and magical \niron""\n\n""many believe that to hang it with the ends pointing upwards is good luck as it acts as a storage container of sorts for any good luck that happens to be floating by, whereas to hang it with the ends pointing down, is bad luck as all the good luck will fall out. Others believe that no matter which way you hang the horseshoe, good luck will come. According to this superstition, the ends-pointing-down display simply means that the good luck is able to flow out and surround the home. If the horseshoe is hung over a doorway, ends up will catch good luck and ends down will let the good luck spill over the door and stop evil from entering. ""

It means hold. It's when a pitcher comes into a game in a save situation and doesn't blow the save...but leaves before the game ends and doesn't get a save. This is the stat category to "judge" a setup pitcher.

A sad state of affairs. \n\nThe Irish can't play Gaelic at a national level and the Aussies can't play Aussie Rules at that level either. So what do you get?\n\nMongrel rules. My only interest is this 'game' is the biffo. Get the Aussie football out and watch the Irish kick it straight. Or perhaps not.\n\nThe answer to the question is that it is quite even between the nations.\n\nCheers, L

It means a quotation or saying

It’s a sailor’s expression, from the days of sailing ships. The terminology of sailing ships is excessively complicated and every time I refer to it people write in to say I’ve got it wrong, usually contradicting each other. So treat what follows as a broad-brush treatment, open to dispute on fine points.\nWe ignorant landlubbers might think that a sheet is a sail, but in traditional sailing-ship days, a sheet was actually a rope, particularly one attached to the bottom corner of a sail (it actually comes from an Old English term for the corner of a sail). The sheets were vital, since they trimmed the sail to the wind. If they ran loose, the sail would flutter about in the wind and the ship would wallow off its course out of control.\nExtend this idea to sailors on shore leave, staggering back to the ship after a good night on the town, well tanked up. The irregular and uncertain locomotion of these jolly tars must have reminded onlookers of the way a ship moved in which the sheets were loose. Perhaps one loose sheet might not have been enough to get the image across, so the speakers borrowed the idea of a three-masted sailing ship with three sheets loose, so the saying became three sheets in the wind.\nOur first written example comes from that recorder of low life, Pierce Egan, in his Real life in London of 1821. But it must surely be much older.\nThe version you give, incidentally, is comparatively recent, since the older one (the only one given in the big Oxford English Dictionary) is three sheets in the wind. However, online searches show that your version is now about ten times as common as the one containing in, so it may be that some day soon it will be the only one around. The version with to seems to be gaining ground because so many people think a sheet is a sail.

It's a trick play that is used by the offense at the right time when the opponent's defense is in a different formation. For example, they used a trick (gadget) play when Antwan Randall-El threw a touchdown to Hines Ward of an reverse in SB 40. \n\nThat was an excellent time to use it!
