word of the week #9

Gaggle
A gaggle of offensive linemen, those massive and massively overlooked brutes of thankless tasks, formed a rare celebration circle around Philadelphia Eagles colleague Todd Herremans.

Def: 1. N. A flock of geese.
2. Informal and disorderly noisy group of people.

The people at the rally stayed pretty tame except for a gaggle of protesters that decided to crash the event.

I don't understand the need for these "extra" words example: goose = singular, plural = geese...why the need for "gaggle"
