Cliche's you can't stand
The local radio was actually doing this on NFL draft cliche's like

"He is very coachable"

"He is a football player"

and on.... Thought it could be an interesting topic. What cliche's really bother you (any subject)?

"give 110%"

that bugs the shit out of me, especially because these dumb athletes probably don't realize that it's impossible

We call all those "general coach speak." All a bunch of crap saying that are a result of sideline reporters asking question at halftime... They could really do away with those - not productive for me... unless she's hot...

I get annoyed with people that often use the words "never" and "can't". In my book anything is possible.

He's got his "game face" on. (Loved Bobby Knight's press confrence on this.)

He's the best player never to have won a major.

He's the best player you've never heard of.

He's the consumate team player.

He's the glue that holds this team together.

He's the heart and soul of this team.

He's the league's most underrated player.

He's the real deal.

Haha true

Or

"You wouldn't/couldn't meet a nicer guy"

I've heard that so many times about so many different people/athletes.
