expression

• Long before cell phones, the best way to inform the authorities of a situation without bringing attention to oneself was to use a pay phone, which required the user to "drop a dime" into the slot. As previously mentioned above, today it is frequently misused by sports analysts to refer to a good pass, most commonly in football or basketball. Because the phrase sounds vaguely familiar, once a few ex-jocks started repeating it, the mistaken definition became the norm, to the point where I heard non-jock ESPN writer Bill Barnwell chew out a twitter follower for pointing out the mistake.

  Billy dropped a dime on Sally when he saw her take a library book without checking it out. He slipped the librarian a note when she was away from her desk.

noun

• I just heard a color commentator covering a college football game say of the Nebraska quarterback, who had just thrown a long touchdown pass, that he "dropped a dime on his receiver." A bit Inigo Montoya, I think.
