I need the help of the Huddle masses. I've been Shibacled!

Deion Sanders called the Herchel Walker trade a "Shibacle". I need to know what the Huddle masses think the definition of this word should be. After getting enough suggestions, I'll create a poll and let everyone vote on it, so if this word is ever used again in the English language, we will all be in agreement as to what the word means.

In a Thursday night appearance on NFL Network, Deion Sanders compares the trade of Donovan McNabb from the Eagles to the Redskins to the "Herschel Walker shibacle."

Sanders eventually calls the move the "dumbest trade ever."

Sorry, I can't be of any help here. I speak English, French, & some coon-ass. Ebonics is way beyond my comprehension.

Before we get inundated with more bad jokes and mildly racist "a black man said something I don't understand, must be that ebonics stuff Ma told me about" comments, I'll point out that shibacle is a term used in the gaming community for some time now. It is a portmanteau of "sh*t" and "debacle" meaning an extremely messed up and confused situation.

A quick Google search nets me a few results such as this from a gamer board:

Idk much about the company making this (It's not Yukes so Hallelujah) but THQ. Now here is hoping they don't pull that Spore shibacle much less make it so we can't mod the game much less tweak it as we please.

Here on page two of YouTube comments:

look i have clared this shibacle up, i like americans, just not america.

Americans = honest people.

America = Over-run government who's meaning of peace is war on a small insergent country who can't protect themselves.

And here on a message board of gentlemen involved in possibly illicit gambling:

I dont think that Jimmymacconcrack dude got paid yet. The whole shibacle may be a clandescant faerie tale.

All three of these examples are clearly time stamped well before yesterday, the oldest being from July of last year. Sanders can claim to have coined the phrase, as most people had not heard the term before yesterday, but he did not pull it out of thin air.

i've heard the word many times. i don't know where it came from or who first used it, but it's hardly new.

    • I really have no clue what to expect sunday.  To quote one of my favorite bands of all time, Operation Ivy "All I know is that I dont know".  We could win, hell we could win convincingly, we also could lose in blowout fashion.  We could be in a back and forth game with whoever has the ball last winning.  I legit HAVE NO CLUE.  This isnt the dominant bills teams of the past, Allen is still elite and can win any game by himself.  That said, heres my stab at looking at things. Our defense is made to stop this kind of team.  Strong against the run, a great corner but meh talent around the field.  We've stopped prolific run offenses this season.   Javonte Williams - Season low yards and ypa against us. De'Von Achane - Season low yards and ypa against us Breece hall - 3rd worst yards in a game Fact of the matter is, we arent what we were last year, we are a good run defense and that lines up well against the bills, Stop the run.  For once the lack of moving Jaycee might be a good thing, he will essentially lock down a side and without multiple real weapons thats fine.  Buffalo does not have an elite guy, theyve got a gaggle of average dudes.  Allen will stay away from Jaycee, it will be on Mike Jack and Chau Smith Wade do to their part and they will be matched with guys they can play at the level of. On offense, we do what the bills are bad at.  We run the ball well, and they suck at stopping the run.  Rico and Chuba will need 30 carries.  Andy Dalton will need to be opportunistic.  My big fear is what we learned last year, Dalton can get overconfident and make bonehead throws.  Its this simple.  Run the ball, stop the run.  Dont turn the ball over.  If we do these 3 things, we will be in a position to win in the 4th quarter.  
    • This makes me wish we took a flyer on Quinn Ewers late in the draft 
    • He has been a good player and clean player over the years. I don’t follow that close but think he was closing in on setting his resume for his place in the all time rankings. I am sympathetic to him becaus this will hurt him there.
