Have you noticed that 90% of the pass attempts in a game he will call the pass as, "He loops it over the middle." Really?? The most i've ever seen the ball do is spiral, perhaps even wobble slightly. But, to throw the football in a loop, we'll that'd be astounding. Good grief, where did he come up with that? :conf2:Not a cliche, but every time Chris Fowler calls an end around a reverse I want to reach through the television and strangle him.
A cliche is a french term used to describe a print plate for the printing press using movable type. Common phrases were often cast as individual plates to save time. The english term for these plates is....du du dun uh...a stereotype.What's interesting to me is that almost all of these cliche's represent a valid concept. A cliche' is just a bankrupt way to express the idea. Some of them aren't the brightest sorts, so they fall back on previously memorized phrases. The dumbest apply the right phrases at the wrong places or just string a bunch together, hoping something will fit...
