Baseball,

Not disagreeing with your post, quite funny actually. Blitz is the German word for Lightning and Krieg is the German word for war.....BlitzKrieg = lightning war. So Blitz itself simply meaning lightning passes the PC culture test unless you use it to refer to a non-approved useage.........😬
