For those comparing it to other sports...Look at the truly top athletes in their game, Ronaldhino, Henry, Federer . they never whoop and hollar they show true class by doing the magnificent and then just looking around with a look on their face saying "Yes, I'm the daddy. I know it, you know it..and we both know I'll do it again"
They never go completely nuts and are true gentlemen when it comes to respecting their opponents..that for me is what class is all about.
John McEnroe? Alex Higgins?
Top of their respective games - frequently went completely nuts and showed lack of respect for their opponents.

Boak can be used as a verb....
He's awa' boaking in the sink.
an adjective........
Them bogs are pure boaking min.
and a noun.....
Och min, I've got boak clouted all o'er me
I was away boaking in the sink, them bogs are pure boaking by the way, and now I'm totally covered in boak.

Which helped them become household names outside of their respective sports.
With behaving like a nutter, comes notoriety, and through that cash. Your mum won't be happy though.

yep..but that's the difference between a class act and someone who isn't a class act IMO, being on top of your game doesn't mean you have class.
I am OK with a fist pump by Federer, or a look at me smile by Ronaldhino..it's the disrespect for opponents that shows a lack of class.

Rod, isn't that Baulk?
Nope, that's to hesitate or stop, refuse to do something.

OK OK I stand corrected. Sorry. RED-DOG you cant patent a word that exists in Scottish slang!
There is no reason why a word can't have two meanings, it's quite common. Take "knob" for instance. (not that I'm suggesting that you do...)

I know what the difference between class and no class is. I read your post as saying one of the reasons why Henry, Federer et al were the best at what they do was
because
of their class (truly top athletes = class acts).
I was just showing that is not necessarily the case.

I'm happy with it being used - like you say words have many meanings. I think the Scots meaning adds to the effectiveness of it

Indeed.
Anyway, English has a long tradition of incorporating words from ancient, barbarian languages.

Red card or Andrew! I for one am personally grateful that we have come to an arrangement with our cousins from across the border on the sharing of the word boak! Red - There indeed will be no knob taking from me
