Oh, and either one team or the other, about which, frankly, I don’t give a Tinker’s Dam.
It is interesting that most people think the expression is “I don’t give a damn.”, but it is shortened from the the reference to a tinker’s dam.
“In the Practical Dictionary of Mechanics of 1877, Edward Knight gives this definition: “Tinker’s-dam: a wall of dough raised around a place which a plumber desires to flood with a coat of solder. The material can be but once used; being consequently thrown away as worthless”.
