My friend Thad Quill says that American football, like golf, is a [5 letter word meaning pussy] game. Thad might have changed his mind if he watched the gallant lads last night. Though Vince Young is no David Swearingen, and though this Texas team would have been no match for the Rogers Mountaineers of ‘64, Texas, must be given her due. It’s been a long drought, and the faithful have kept up the cry even in the worst of times.Well, some were dying, some were weeping,
Some were studying, some were sleeping,
Some were shouting “Texas # 1!”
From The Ballad of Charles Whitman by Kinky Friedman (Listen here)
Texas, we, Irish, Mountaineers, and Razorbacks alike, salute you.

The five letter word: You mean the little fella with long hair who never shave?
Sally:
That's merely how George refered to Ursula in his conversation with Ape, but in the context of our conversation, you are correct. I'd never, ever, use that word itself.
E-Wei:
In the context in which Thaddy was using the term, it does not apply to you, whether you play golf or not. Neither he, nor I, meant any offence. Please don't come after us with your clubs.
If Thad Quill would quit ramblin, rovin, and drinking black porter long enough to learn something, he'd know that hurling is merely a primitive version of shinty from which we Scots refined into golf.
Stick to your clubs Sally.
