Q: If they "really" meant it they would take their hat off.

It is a very old reference when the men would tip their hat off to the ladies as a sign of respect. It has since become a figure of speech to mean someone has earned your respect.

Kendall C, Proud 49ers Fan!:

It is a classic saying. The entire meaning is that they take their hat off and bow gracefully to say that they won legitly. Nobody does that type of thing anymore. Its just a saying today.

Thumbs up to those who agree.

From an Orléans trailer park to Stanley Cup champion, Claude Julien's journey ...

27.06.11 | Orleans Online

When the Boston Bruins were celebrating their recent Stanley Cup win over the Vancouver Canucks, an older couple was standing off to the side of the dressing room trying not to get drenched by the champagne.

Marcel and Bela Julien had flown to Vancouver to watch their son Claude fulfill his Stanley Cup dream. A dream that began 41 years ago when they would get up at five o'clock in the morning to drive him to a 6 a.m. practice in Leitrim only to have to drive all the way back again when the rink attendant failed to show up.

"And that was on a school day," says Marcel, remembering those early morning drives from the Buena Vista trailer park on Old Montreal Road where the Juliens first lived after moving to Orléans from Blind River near Elliot Lake.
