throws down
Casts to ground
Throws down means to issue or accept a challenge aggressively, from the gesture of throwing down a gauntlet: She threw down on the dance floor.
It can mean to fight or compete intensely, or to perform with exceptional skill and energy: The band really threw down last night.
In casual use, to throw down also means to eat or drink heartily, or to contribute money: Everyone threw down twenty bucks for pizza.
