Pizzaz, but you spelled it the way that Manny said it to Tony:
"Loog at eem. He's got sytle, flasch, pezaz...an a leetle coke money doesn't hurt no one..."
Hector to T: "Entree, entree. Dis..is Marta..."

I was more wrong with the placement of the double-z's. There's a pizazz variant. That's what I was going for. I didn't know your spelling existed tbh. Two sets of double Zs? Cmon, language...
Boy pizzazz is a bad word. I'm gonna lump it in with the term and the concept of:
In case I missed adding it before, I'm about at the point where I'm starting to cringe when I hear an athlete is special. I'm serious. That's a vile new faddy term that means nothing. You're using a damn term that was created to replace terms like stunted and slow, Godssake. That effin term caught on like hot fiya, too. Everywhere players who weren't even that good or accomplished were getting called special. I'll bet some of our draftees of late were called that.
For that matter, I'm adding the opposite of special:
40) trash used as noun while downgrading a player
Just saw it used in another post and came back here. Player XX is trash.
I think trash is used in a way that it discounts anything that happens in the future. It's a hot take in one word. It's immediate, it's immutable. Even with special, the term doesn't signify they will be superstars, so there's some bit of self-determination in there left for the player. If she or he is called trash, that's it. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!

39) shocked but not surprised
has never made any sense to me; they mean the same thing
I’ve always heard that the other way around, because shocked is a bigger version of Surprised, and often with a negative connotation. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel
