It's a thing with the younger generation. Back in your time, in the age of Bob Gibson, the pitching mound resembled the north face of the Eiger. Now that they've lowered it, is more like a speed bump.

Thanks, it was more of a tongue-in-cheek comment, I get a bit frustrated with all the new terminology, yes, no doubt, I'm old school.

I'm as old school as they come and we always said "on the bump" or "on the hill".
Thomas Jefferson: "When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery."

I'm almost 46 and it's always been part of my baseball lingo.

My dad was born in 1944, I am assuming the term has been around a long, long time
