"This is a MUST win game."- I actually heard a baseball announcer use that phrase earlier this month. For christsakes it only April.

(About the losing team in a game) "It was a moral victory."
"It's a shame either team has to lose this game." What do you want, a tie, so neither of them win it. "They played there guts out."

I don't like the aforementioned quotes, but I especially don't like when athletes say: "I wanna thank God for this win tonight." As Charles Barkley stated in his book, God doesn't have a favorite team, and he's probably too worried about larger problems than a basketball game.

Baseball:
During a game..." What do ya say now, kid?". Now, what the fcuk does that mean? Honestly? "You gotta hit the ball"....no shit thanks coach. how about you get your ass up here and do that. Anyone that argues a call is stpuid, you can't change it at all.

I've been hearing this one a lot lately...
"We gotta put this game behind us and focus on the next one." Ugh, playoff time, complete lack of original thoughts! Last edited by Indiana Sev; 05-10-2003 at 12:40 AM..

"The next game's a must-win."
When you talk about Game Two of a best-of-seven series, I'd tend to say "no it isn't, you can still win the next, bub". And when it's a game that can kick you out of the playoffs if you lose...then I'd tade to say "fuckin' duh!". Oh, and btw, thanks for the book title, Greb.

Football(soccer) commentators say this all the time..."Man Utd are setting their stall out early".......WHAT!!!......and..."Well Richard,..it's a game of two halves"(obviously)....and...."ohh he won't be happy when he sees that"...these all make me laugh

Well I was reading the Mike Tyson/rape thread in the celebrity gossip section and thought I'd post some of my favorite Tysonisms.
"I'm a tyranical titan ..... my style is impeccable..... my defense is inpreganable." "I'll eat his (Evander Holyfield) children." "Ludicrous" "Mike, are you going to go after the world title again?" "Uh, I don't know..... praise Allah!"

Mike is just so "court-jesterous."
"It's not whether you win or lose, it's whether you learn from your mistakes and get better." Fuck that.

Just because my Cubbies are doing so well this year, here are some of my favorite Harryisms. Honoring Hall of Fame broadcaster Harry Caray.
"There's danger here, Cheri!" (The Cubs make a late inning comeback) "The big possum walks late!" "You can't beat fun at the old ballpark." "Geeeez, he (Dunston ) couldn't have hit that with a telephone pole."(Player X hits a home run) "They are dancing in the streets of (Player X's hometown)." RIP Harry.

"i put all i had out there on the field/court/ice." umm... than can i get a piece of that million dollar salary!
"the ball sped up on him" usually said in a baseball game played on astro-turf... due to the law of physics, it is IMPOSSIBLE for the ball to speed up when it hits a surface!

I heard one of the stupidest quotes by an announcer in some time during the Vikings/Cardinals game today.
Bill Romanowski- "Take a look at Emmit Smith, he is all class... He's gotta be loving the fact that Marcel Shipp hurt his shoulder, that means he'll get more carries today." There is a reason he is the bottom of the barrel FOX announcer and is doing the Cardinals game I guess.

"They just SHOCKED the world!"
No. No you fucking didn't. I'm pretty sure the townsfolk in Libya didn't go all apeshit when San Antonio won the NBA championship. It's hard enough to get Canadians interested in the sport.

Whenever a player says something like "they wanted it more" i get really pissed off they may as well say we were to lazy to come out and play today but we could have won if we wanted to.

Or how about every time a commentator says when a goalie allows an easy goal
"He probably wanted that one back" No kidding I would have thought so too!

John Madden is full of these little "pearls"...not necessary cliche', but definitely dumb. It's like he's talking to a fourth grade gym class.
-When the defense puts pressure on the quarterback, he can't throw the ball. -When you don't cover a receiver, he can catch the ball and gain big yardage. -When the quarterback throws to an open receiver in the endzone, they get a touchdown. Just really obvious shit like this. I'm paraphrasing, but you get the idea. How he's been a color commentator for so long I'll never know. Last edited by jeo4; 01-12-2004 at 03:22 PM..

"They were the better team today."
Yeah, we know. The fact that they scored more points than you kind of gave that away.
