Only just actually noticed what it says on the back of The Usos shirts.
What does that even mean?
It's the most idiotic slogan since Morrison told us he was going to steal our lunch.

Play Hard in the Paint = A team giving stellar effort
The Usos are a team. The Usos wear paint. Not sure how this is that complex. |

I didn't get it either. I guess I've never heard the slogan before.

I think it means they want to be punched in the face.

The Usos are a team. The Usos wear paint. Not sure how this is that complex. Must be an American expression because I've never heard anyone use "Play Hard in the Paint" to mean putting a lot of effort into something. |

The term has etymological roots in the basketball parlance that describes an attempt to score in the crowded and highly contested area directly under and immediately adjacent to the raised hoop on a basketball court, or "painted" area. Shot attempts in this area are traditionally only successful when made with a strong conviction to score, skill, overpowering strength, or a combination thereof

Shot attempts in this area are traditionally only successful when made with a strong conviction to score, skill, overpowering strength, or a combination thereof Also can be referring to playing hard defense in the paint to try and prevent these shots with just as much or more effort. Or rebounding which you have to jump and bang around to accrue. |
