Can anyone help me with two answers I am stuck on. The first clue is BRINGS TO A SUDDEN STOP, JUST LIKE MARY DECKER-SLANEY WAS? the answer is 5 letter and I have some ?N?B? The second clue is WALL GAME WHICH WON'T FEATURE AT THE OLYMPICS? the answer is 4 letters and I have some E?O?
snub
vt (snubbing; snubbed) to take up, cut short, rebuff, in a humiliating or mortifying manner; to rebuke; to check or stop; to bring to a sudden stop, eg to bring (a boat, unbroken horse, etc) to a stop by means of a rope secured to a post or stake; to cut or break short.
glasman - I am not implying anything! The fact is that Mary Decker- Slaney was snubbed in 'that' race ie checked or stopped, as per the Chambers dictionary definition. What is the problem?
