🏀🗑️ Sounds like boat-ar: toss it off the boat, fire the whole crew
From Old French bouter, to push or strike; English butt shares the root. A ball bota (bounces), you botar la basura (throw out the trash), and a boss can botar an employee. In Latin America it is the everyday word for throwing something away.
