WORM CHAMP\n. - used by some NFLers to describe a defensive
player thrown to the ground, as if they were burrowing into
dirt ("Dude, Orlando Pace totally made you worm champ today!")

Jags D-lineman Paul Spicer:

"I heard it as a rookie in Seattle. Some vets would yell it
every time I got thrown down. They even made a Worm
Championship belt that sat in my locker."
