True. I grew up saying "pop" and "tennis shoes", which have now been replaced by "soda" and "gym shoes." Not really a conscious effort on my part. I did try to lose the nasally pronunciation of Wis-CON-sin, though. I remember playing a game called "hotbox" where you would try to catch a runner in a run-down baseball type situation. My suburban college buddies though I was nuts and called the game "running bases."

We've always called it running bases. Hotbox sounds like something Hawger gets into when he goes to the other board's outings.

Your version of hotbox and my version are pretty different...

Fuck all y’all for trying to tarnish a childhood memory:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotbox_(baseball)

Hotbox is a baseball drill or mini-game that can be played with three or more players and two to four bases. In the drill, one fielder plays near each of the bases and the rest of the players are runners, who begin on any base. The fielders proceed to throw the ball to each other, playing catch. At any time, a runner may attempt to run to the next or previous base. The fielders then attempt to throw to each other and tag that runner out. If a runner is tagged out (either once or three times), he then becomes a fielder, and the fielder who tagged him out becomes a runner. Runners count how many bases they reach safely, and the player with the most bases when the group decides to quit, wins. If there are three or more bases, the runners may run in either direction.
Often, runners will get into a hotbox, for which the drill is named; the fielders must use teamwork and skill to put the runners out. Errors often happen as well, with which the fielders must contend as the runners scramble to earn additional bases.
Fielders must take care not to hit the runners with a thrown ball. Some players may choose to devise a penalty for hitting a runner with a ball, such as a deduction in the fielder's own score. Batter's helmets are recommended. If it is too difficult for runners to advance safely, the bases can be spaced closer together to shift the balance; conversely, bases farther apart give the fielders an advantage (assuming they can throw well).
