“Generational talent” - way overused
“He needs to get his head around” - Announcer defending a PI call when there was no contact, but the DB wasn’t looking at the ball.
He’s got a “motor”… just say stamina
“Ball skills” - unless referring to a cheerleader
“Free football” for overtime- not that cute
“Insert team color …out”

I dislike ‘chip or ‘ship more when referring to a championship. Natty has grown on me a little, but it is newer slang.

Re: Least favorite football slang term. Ungalay

When the dopey TV and Radio announcers pronounce DJU's name as "Ungalay" ... sounds like the announcers are watching the old Speedy Gonazalez cartoons and are too lazy to learn how to pronounce the players' names.
(But really, I hate "physicality" the most. Absolutely moronic.)

But I hate when players use the word “committed” these days because it’s becoming more and more comical how uncommitted some have been recently. Just an observation.

That has driven me insane since the first time I heard it, like a “natty light” or something, honestly used to think it was trashy people who drank NL saying it until I realized it was a “thing”, it’s horrible.

Ton.

How much does one sack weigh, or one yard, or one....
There are a ton of words that bother me, but that one bothers me the most. ??
