I dont think it throws dirt at all. It is a "slang term" for a ruling. I have heard the term used for the catcher out of box situation and now that I think about it, I have ALSO heard it used for 7.07. While perhaps the term should be kept among umpires as a quick explaination of a situation, it probably should not be used to explain to a coach on the field. But slang is used in all parts of society and officiating is no different when plays are being discussed among each other.
EDITED to add that this post was in response to a post which is no longer here ?
