CLT is an abbreviation for Charlotte, so without following the baseball tournament at all I’d assume he’s saying Charlotte eliminated Clemson? But I also don’t know how many people outside of the Charlotte area use CLT for the city and would know that off the top of their head. Seems like if he intended the title to ACTUALLY say it all, he could’ve just typed the extra 6 letters and said Charlotte.

Generally, yes. Charlotte tends to go by UNC Charlotte or just Charlotte. But CLT is used for various branding and marketing programs in the Charlotte area. I’m sure the University partakes in that to an extent. It’s representative of the city and it’s also the airport code. 
 

But I also recognize most outside the area wouldn’t know that and would have used the more commonly known abbreviations or simply said Charlotte.

Far as I understand it, it means that the third word in "the english language" is literally language.

It's incredibly dumb and intentionally misleading. Nobody would interpret that sentence in that way.  And there is no third common word that ends in "gry"....there's several obscure ones, though.

Lousy post, but I did get a case of the 'Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at the TV screen.jpg' when Clemson pulled off the double squeeze in the ACC tournament.
