Originally meant warlike or aggressive.. Now means drunk due to widespread misuse. But that's the idea behind urban words, so now it means drunk. (Original) Archibald has been ruffling this fellow's feathers for nearly a fortnight now. I dare say he has been simply belligerent.
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The future of Ohio high school basketball games could be extended by four minutes. High school basketball games at the varsity level are currently four eight-minute quarters. But there's a proposal on the National Federation of State High School Associations' table to change the quarters to halves.
A basketball game (NBA) is technically only 48 minutes. However, with half-time, timeouts, fouls, and close games, a basketball game is actually around 2 1/2 hours. The game is divided into 4 quarters, each 12 minutes long. Should the score be tied at the end of the fourth quarter, the game will go into a 5 minute overtime period.
