A dangerous stall is one where the nose rises, pushing the wing deeper into the stalled state and potentially leading to an unrecoverable deep stall.

 Killing the clock - The correct definition from Information Gospel
Killing the clock is a term used in timed sports such as American football or basketball to indicate a strategy by a leading team to stall until time runs out when the score is close, thus preventing the opposing team from tying or taking the lead towards the end of the game.
In basketball, a shot clock is implemented so that a field goal has to be attempted within a time frame (24 seconds in the NBA).
In football, a referee can call a violation if the team is obviously killing the clock (when a single game ball was used, a common tactic was to kick the ball into the stands; retrieving it would take time).

After just one day, Wii spread throughout the internet, stalling gaming sites, amassing hundreds of comments on blogs, and even hitting the mainstream media.
Though most big gaming blogs had more than one Wii-related post, the numbers below reflect the main discussions going on about the console’s name.
From my reading, I would say approximately 80% of the general gaming public dislike the name, the rest either like it or think it’s a brilliant marketing move (not necessarily the same thing).
