Jamming Tool = some sort of widget that the members of a Madison team use. That is, when you fling your partner into the race, you do so by grabbing his jamming Tool instead of merely using his hand or shorts.
     I could be wrong but it's a lot easier that figuring out who's singing Dalida's old pop hit in the wake of World War 2!
