"Tell your story walkin'" -> nghĩa (lóng) là bảo ai nên vừa đi vừa kể cho tiện.

Ví dụ
But it’s your fault. You wanted consistency. And now you have it. And as bloody-minded a man as Archer will bloody well give it to you. This is what you wanted. Tell your story walkin’, buddy.

Wade Miley flings one past a batter and the batter doesn’t have a crack, and the umpire does one of those brilliant double-fisting moves to signify: you’re outta here. You know the one, like he’s violently double-pumping a motor-mower’s ripcord. Seeya! And tell your story walkin’, Bubba. It is gold. We’ve seen this stuff on the television before, each year we might tune in to the World Series, get to know Wade Boggs or Kirby Puckett. We've heard of Derek Jeter and Dave Nilsson, the Australian who comes to mind when you think Major League Baseball. But actually seeing the umpire do a Leslie Nielsen move from Naked Gun, actually seeing it live and sweaty at the SCG? It is very cool.

On Wednesday night, Armando Galarraga of the Detroit Tigers was all but finished pitching baseball’s 21st perfect game when the first-base umpire (trọng tài, người phân xử), Jim Joyce, declared a runner safe. Replays would prove the umpire was wrong, and he admitted as much — “I just cost that kid a perfect game,” he said later — but the game was over by then. Lights out. Tell your story walkin’.
