"Right in my wheelhouse" trend?
Just curious if any of you all have started hearing this idiom a lot more lately? It started with a guy at my work that was using it a lot. Then a guy who I know socially (totally unrelated to the work guy) started using it. Now a friend in St. Louis just sent me an email that used it.
Anyone have any clue about why this saying has resurged? Used by a sportcaster? On a reality show? Etc..? Prior to the last year, I'm not sure I'd ever even heard the saying before. |

I've heard it in baseball for years.

Maybe it's a result of baseball playoffs beginning and more people starting to closer attention to the sport.

Been around for years. I occasionally use it... Haven't noticed it being a trend.
So you're count of people using it is up to 3... Think it's just you. |

Another friend knows two of the three guys, and he commented as well when the second one used the phrase in a facebook post. He was like, "X sounds like Y."

I used to. Quit using it about 2 years ago. Sorry. Cannot help. Maybe NWA really is that far behind the social trend curve?

I think more people are living in trailer parks due to the economy.

Omaha uses it when referencing boyish figures.

It's in the first line of Brad Paisley's new song too.

I didn't know you were a C&W fan there Doc. Now I'm sure you've taken a few cocks into your wheelhouse.

Old saying, and I have used it from time to time, but cannot say that I have heard it more lately than I ever have.
