Ground Game
(ground gām) a euphemism derived from mixed martial arts (mma) patois. ground game is metaphorical, in the sense that it implies one’s fundamental principles. the ground game is where mma fighters go to recover from extended cinch or stand-up fighting, or if their ground game is strong, they tend to drive fights directly to the ground. there is incredible reliance on correct positions and strength, hence “ground game” as slang implies one’s position when working at the most tactical, brutalistic level.
