Name words that have dual meanings. Spelled the same but can mean 2 different things depending on context. I can see this going sideways just in the SEC Conference.

1. Race

Edited to say. COCK. I can not believe one of you perverts did not say Cock.

"Sanction" can mean both approve and disapprove

"Resign" can mean both continue and quit

Two words whose two meanings are opposites
