Re: let me know "Grab Some Pine Meat" means.


yeah, what croix said

I assume the Bench used to be made of pine wood

and Meat is put down, like you are a brainless object "meat" instead of a human

so "Grab Some Pine Meat" would kinda translated to "Sit Down You Loser" emoticon

Meat could also be

"He is throwing Meat"

which means he is hittable

Not sure why Meat, but .....

"dead meat"

Which means you are doomed

Re: let me know "Grab Some Pine Meat" means.


Transitive verb phrase

grab some pine (past, grabbed some pine)

   1. (sports) Go sit on the bench. Typically used as a taunt after a strikeout. Popularized by Giants sportscaster Mike Krukow.

          Strike three! Grab some pine, Meat!

this is where i got it from


GRAB SOME PINE An instruction to take a seat on the bench. Origin: This has long been common. ``I bet the first time I ever heard it was my third day of organized baseball from a guy named Q.V. Lowe,'' Krukow said.

Side note -- The initials stood for nothing; it was Q.V.'s full first name, as evidenced by his driver's license, which read: ``Q (only) V (only).'' Krukow recalled, ``He got stopped one time by a good ol' boy Alabama state trooper, who looked at the license and said, `Qonly Vonly? What the hell kind of name is that?' ''

Hamels started toward the dugout after what he thought was a strike. Lincecum didn't get the call & buzzed ump Dana DeMuth w. a fastball that slammed off the backstop & then froze Hamels w. another 3rd strike. 4/28/10 Timmy the ump killer.
