It ain't braggin' motherf@cker if ya back it up....
The nuances of brag, courtesy of Webster:

boast, brag, vaunt, crow mean to express pride in oneself or one's accomplishments. boast often suggests ostentation and exaggeration <boasts of every trivial success>, but it may imply a claiming with proper and justifiable pride <the town boasts one of the best museums in the area>. brag suggests crudity and artlessness in glorifying oneself <bragging of their exploits>. vaunt usually connotes more pomp and bombast than boast and less crudity or naïveté than brag <vaunted his country's military might>. crow usually implies exultant boasting or bragging <crowed after winning the championship>.

'Backing it up' doesn't have anything to do with it.

mostly I call it setting the record straight....I had absolutely nothing to say on the subject of ability prior to the tiny pink skis thread...and I'll back that up too....
