To call an incomprehisible play in a football game (when a more humble approach is more prudent) costing your team points and possibly the game--as with Bill Belichick's decision to go for it on 4th and 2 on his own 28 with a late 6-point lead against the Colts.
Nick Saban should have just punted on 4th and 23 in his first possession of the game, but his ego forced him to Belichick it with the fake, leading to a field goal for Texas.

An employer's passive method for saying, "Thanks, but no thanks," when an employee gives two-weeks notice. The employee will walk in one morning to a file box on his or her desk. The box will be used by the employee to pack his or belongings before being escorted out of the building.
I gave the firm my two-weeks notice on Wednesday when I found a better job, and had every intention of working the full notice, but by Friday they had decided just to brown-box me.
