Go get 'em tiger!

An encouragement used in ordinary conversation since the 1960's. Expressing your confidence someone has qualities on par with a jungle cat: stealthy and lethal. "Slugger" was a similar boost that didn't survive modernity, now considered mildly sardonic rather than sincere.

Heard you've an interview in Cupertino this afternoon. Go get 'em tiger!

Go get 'em tiger...

A phrase used when you are having a conversation with someone (usually a friend), and the other person is being a complete dumbass and doesn't understand what you're talking about, even though its completely understandable... But then they finally get it.

John: Hey, where were you today?
Sam: I was home sick...
John: Oh where were you? I didn't know you were on vacation!
Sam: I'm at home. Sick. Dumbass.
John: Oh!! You're home.. and you're sick. Sucks man!
Sam: Go get 'em tiger...
