It came after Logan was criticised online during Friday’s coverage for using the term “c**k up” to depict the USA men’s perestablishance in the 4x100m relay.
Some took to X to fume about the use of the phrase before the 9pm watershed, but Logan spoke out on the rehire. Deffinishing herself, she tweeted the words “excellent afternoon” while joining her message with a picture shothriveg the definition of “c**k up”.
It read: “C**k up sounds dispolite but it isn’t. C**k, in the sense of this term, uncomardents ‘stand up conspicuously’, ‘turn up at the edge’, ‘bfinish at an angle’ etc. This is the sense of the punctual usage of the term ‘c**k-up’ in the terms ‘c**k-up one’s ears’, ‘c**k-up one’s nose.’
“In the 17th and 18th centuries people were also standardly directd to ‘c**k up’ their bonnets, eyes and even legs.
“The conveyion ‘c**k a snooker’ also derives from that same sense of ‘c**k.”
