For me the exception would be if they say something like "Thank God no one got hurt on that play." If they start thanking God for their win or their play I always wonder what makes them think that God is on their side and against the other side.

"He's a student of the game"
"He's got high <insert sport> IQ"

I agree.

However, I was just quoting Nuke LaLoosh/Crash Davis...

Thought of another one that drives me nuts. "They played with their backs against the wall." That doesn't even make sense.

Mostly because many calls get overturned that are disputable.

Can't stand this one. Half the time you know, just by the amount of time it's taking, that they are looking for a reason to overturn it. It's a completely over-used and false explanation of what is really going on.

Amen to that

The worst IMO is the "They just made more plays" and any variant involving "making plays".

He does all the little things is something I heard about Kevin Young last night and it made me throw up in my mouth. Just say he sucks.

Anyone else remember that SNL skit where Will Ferrell was being interviewed after competing in a lumberjack contest, and he kept talking about how Jesus helped him win? And then the interviewer asked him why he struggled in a particular event and he said something like, "Yeah, Jesus really blew it on that one." One of those obscure skits that stuck with me for some reason.
