Official "Stop Saying That Phrase" Thread

How about every college football-related broadcast of any kind using the word "swagger." That's a phrase that needs to be eighty-sixed.

Or "speed around the edge" or "intangibles" or "high motor" or...........

Pretty much listen to Herbstreit during a game and you can pick 1,000 overused terms/phrases he uses that should be tossed from football broadcasts permanently.

I wouldn't mind the use of "intangibles" if it weren't for the fact that every announcer that has ever dropped the word on air proceeds to follow that up by listing all the great, easily-identified attributes of the player, which are almost always "tangible."

When speaking of white QB's, quit assuming he's a pocket passer
