When you do whatever you have to do to win, short of cheating, but
playing dirty.
This derives from the final fight of "Karate Kid" where the main character's leg is broken and the evil
Sensai instructs his student to "
Sweep the leg" out from under him to win.
Example:
If the
pitcher wants to get past a good
hitter in baseball and throws a
fastball at his face, making him walk, and possibly taking him out for the rest of the game, that is an example of "Sweep-the-leg"
