A terrapin is a turtle. So I guess it means slow and helpless.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 31-Mar-02 AT 08:03 AM (EST)]I think it means stupid, ignorant people. Many of the social misfit students at U of MD had to start rioting and destroying property in College Park last night after the win. Riot Police had to be called in to control the idiots. The poor babies are complaining about being sprayed with mace and held back from throwing bricks thru storefronts, setting fires and damaging police cruisers.

This is their reaction to a win at the final 4. What's to happen Monday if they win the title? Worse yet, what will happen Monday if they lose?

These rejects from the gene pool should all be kicked out of the University.
