Talk:Bye (sports)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bye Week Where did this term originate?

That's what I want to know. Anyone have any imput on where this term came from or where it originated?

I really would like to know as well. Because they say "bye" to the other competitors and go home during that week or event? That seems ridiculous. I'll ask on the help desk if no one pops up with an answer here. Thedoorhinge 02:00, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
It's a variant of the word "by", presumably in its meaning of going past He went by the church.--I like pants 05:36, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
