The Turkey Jones
To suplex someone at an inappropriate moment, usually during any minor or pro sport other than wrestling. Often a rookie mistake by over anxious defensive players in the NFL.
Named after the infamous 1976 Steelers/Browns game where Joe (Turkey) Jones suplexed Terry Bradshaw resulting in Bradshaw getting a concussion. Whenever a ball carrier gets the Turkey Jones in the NFL, it's immediately followed by a brief discussion about the "good ol' days" from the color analyst covering the game. Bonus points are awarded if it occurs during a Sunday night game and Chris Collinsworth pretends to know what he's talking about while Al Michaels tells him to shut up in a passive aggressive manner.

Chris Collinsworth- "See? that's another rookie mistake that these defensive players keep jumping the gun on. You can't slam a ball carrier into the ground like the good ol' days with Turkey Jones and Terry Bradshaw."
Al Michaels- "Are you going to say that every time someone gets the turkey jones?"
Chrish Collinsworth- "...."
Al Michaels- "While you're at it, why not call Madden to come out of retirement to do your job better than you."
