[edit] Stub notice

Re: the stub notice – The idea is to make this article more than just a dictionary article. The content of the article in its first draft is to get someone else – perhaps, a sports enthusiast with more knowledge – started in creating the article. Perhaps they would be able to state why teams run out the clock, how the practice got started, etc.

Yes, I agree the term "running out the clock" should go into the Wikipedia dictionary. But let's expand on this article, too. [[Briguy52748 21:33, 13 November 2005 (UTC)]]

How this isn't encyclopedic boggles the mind. But why not copy it to Wiktionary as well? Matt Yeager 01:56, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
