Warning: This entry from The Ski Guru has nothing to do with skiing/riding.
Back during the legendary run the New England Patriots went on - en route to the franchise's 1st Superbowl victory during the 2001 NFL season - I came up with this definition. Over time it has become common jargon within the Ski Guru's circle of friends and acquaintances.
Recently updated for republication (eg - tonight's game vs the Saints)

This reminds me of 2003 (winter of 2004) in Squaw when the Pattitude was running so high after we beat the Colts in the Divisional Round that you had to pilot the ship back to Truckee...Never forget Rules 1-3:
1) No Driving
2) Don't run out of beer
3) Do not doubt Bill Belichick
