Annoying cliche football vernacular....

[BuzzCzar]

I really like, "we'll be back after a short break" - that usually means 5min of commercials

More seriously, I like the phrases that former players use when describing plays, bc that gives me insight on how these topics are approached and coached in the NFL

I'm trying to think of a specific example, but "never without a word to say" BuzzCzar cant recall it. Daggum King Clementine!! I blame you!!!

Are there any football cliches that folks on the board like? I find myself agreeing that about half the ones being posted here are annoying but I don't mind the other half.

Madden used to talk about a running back "picking his hole". I thought that was great as a middle schooler
