The word "swagger" is legitimate and has existed for decades. People act like 'swag' emerged out of nowhere to define the quality. I hate it.

3 for 3. Pick six stays. I won't ask the same question again (but I am interested to see what the proposed problem with pick six is). I actually don't mind man cave either. Honestly, I would love to have one to get away every once in a while. 

 

Edit: At the time I started writing, there were only two other posts. Got up, checked on my son in the tub, and this thread just blew up. Kind of surprising actually.

Pick Six just bugs me.

It is overused. I don't have a problem with "insider" jargon, but when every idiot announcer in the free world uses it, the term gets old. Mind you, I have no problem with Michigan intercepting a lot of balls and running them back for TDs. In fact, I'd give the announcer a pass in that case.

Or complaining about the unpredictability or general unpleasentness of the weather in [whatever locale you happen to hail from]. No, you don't have it worse than everyone else. Except Mt. Washington. If you're one of the sixish people who happen to live on top, you're totally entitled.

It doesn't bug you

You're not upset about the term itself. It is the fact that people never hyphenate it that bothers you.

Coach speak

I hear what your saying, but often coach speak does not make sense grammatically. I hear other coaches constantly throw terms at me that are not even real words. I do not mind this one just based off the context. Does it make him look a little blue collar to the average fan, of course. It fits his personality well though, for the better of course.

Two new expressions I've learned to hate:

One is when somebody (usually a girl, but sometimes even a guy) sees or hears something cute or touching and gives this long drawn-out, "Awwwwww.........")

The other is same situation but some good news is heard and they clap their hands and say "Yaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!"

I fucking hate that. Guaranteed, you will see or hear one of the other within the next three days.

Down Town

When an announcer refers to a three point shot in basketball as "from down town" I cringe. I'm pretty sure that Marv (sp?) Albert started this and if he was the only one who said it it wouldn't be so annoying, but "down town" is the fall back for every hack announcer on the planet now.

Former Big Ten Network announcer and Northwestern football player Chris Martin may have been the worst offender at shoe-horning catch phrases into broadcasts. I once heard him refer to a "Skittles™ play". I watched the play over and over and to this day can't tell you what made it a Skittles™ play.

Anything that comes out of Dick Vitale's mouth needs to be retired.

"Impactful" - It sounds

"Impactful" - It sounds stupid and tells me that the person saying it is stupid.

"Fast twitch" - Makes me uncomfortable for some reason

"Basically" - If it is so "basic" why is your explanation so long?

"Economies of scale" and "Correlation does not equal causation" - The two terms idiots who took an Econ or Stats 101 blurt out when in an argument.

"Hot pockets"

Stop calling recruits "studs."  We're not bringing them here to breed them for chrissake.

(If they do that on their own, that's their affair.  So to speak.)

Men saying "pee" instead of "piss."

The following common online butcheries:

definAtely

your/you're/ur

their/there/they're

effect/affect

Ohio referring to themselves as "Bucks."  Sorry no:  You're not a stud deer, you're an acorn.

Ending a comment with the superfluous, idiotic "that is all" instead of just the goddamned period you're supposed to use.

Their definately must be some more out there that effect me when I hear them but that's all ur going to get for now because I gotta go pee.  That is all.

More: The use of the word

More:
The use of the word "fucking" to fill space between words to buy a slow mind time for thoughts to catch up to the mouth. 

The bizaare way "you know" is used for the same thing.

Effing French yelling "allez!" when they win points during the French Open.

Effing Spanish people yelling "vamos!" when they win points during the French Open.

Effing Americans yelling "come on!" when they win points during the French Open.

Dated, but Roger Federer crumbling in joyous rapture after winning his zillionth major like, now THIS one is REALLY the new greatest moment of his life.  Act like you been there already man.

Soccer/futbol players diving, fainting and sighing and grabbing random body parts like gigantic wuss bags to win calls from refs.

The sick way this same type of flopping and over-acting is creeping into basketball.

The way NBA players are all buddies now.  Bring back the old days when they all effing hated each other and brawled like Dr J, Bird, Magic, Isiah, Parrish,and Malone, and MJ.  The '92 Olympic dream team started this pathetic path hand holding, kumbaya love fest we all see today.

I could go on forever.  I need therapy.

Yes.  This.  What you said.  A thousand times.  I hate when some recruiting analyst wannabe says, "I watched his film and...." The fuck you did.  There's a big difference between a hype video and the stuff that recruiters and coaches actually watch to get a full evaluation.

"I watched his film and I think he's a stud."  Why, has this guy been making porn now?

Here's my 2 cents

I hate: when announcers say true freshman. It's either a redshirt freshman or a freshman. We're not dumb, we know the difference.
When announcers, looking at you Mussberger, shorten the team name like the 'noles or the 'canes.
When the weather is miserable and people have to ask you, is it hot/cold enough for you?
Fixin', as in I was just fixin' to do that.
Wicked to denote good, "thats wicked awesome." Yeah, I lived in the NE.
Trickeration. Who the [email protected]# created that word?!?
They just want it more, right because competitors sometimes say it would be cool if I win, but I just hope to have fun.
I should stop now otherwise I won't go to bed.

Quick Question

Quick Question: At the end of the day, when you get to the bottom line, isn’t a “quick question” just a long-winded, difficult-to-understand, overly complex, mind-numbing interrogatory that runs on and on and then begs for a “quick answer,” despite requiring years of intense study, countless hours of additional research and extraordinary intellect in order to properly respond to the inquiry? . . . Sounds like I’ve got a case of the Mondays after having failed to get to the office during the weekend to use the red Swingline stapler to get those new cover sheets attached to the TPS reports.

I hate all the youngsters who use their fancy smart phones as an excuse to ingore punctuation and capitalization. I also abhor the overuse of acronyms and initializations that force oldsters like me to ask my kids or use Urban Dictionary to figure out what somebody just typed.  And for God's sake, sit up straight when you're typing on your little doohickeys!  If you stay hunched over all day long, one day you'll wake up and not be able to straighten out.

I hate it when people make a typo and blame autocorrect, as if it's totally impossible to go back and fix it.  The best part is they will usually either make a new post that says "whoops stupid autocorrect" instead of fixing the old one, or edit the post just to say "whoops stupid autocorrect," instead of editing the post to look less stupid.

Blaming your machine for your own laziness and/or stupidity is thoroughly obnoxious and probably one step closer to the singularity.

my pet peeve

 is people who say "living the dream" - it has become a smart-ass way of saying "my life sucks." I agree that "irregardless" needs to die. "not just a shooter" is something we'll hear for a couple more years... I'm not racist but.... (that's a horrible way to start a sentence). People who use nationalities/religious groups as verbs need to STFU also. I could keep going for hours, but I'm off to work. Have a great day!

I disagreee

When asked how I am doing I always say 'livin' the dream'.  you know why?  because it reminds me that life is but a dream and we are lucky to live it.

For me, living the dream is a mantra repeated ad nauseum to keep my self cool, calm, and appreciative...

Late adder, but you missed "untracked"

"Mike, they just need to find a way to get their offense untracked."

Great insight there. I think they are untracked, as in not on the track, so what are you talking about and why does a train analogy make any sense anyway?

It's most likely not a train analogy (it's hard to imagine a scenario where an untracked train is a good thing).  The expression most likely comes from wagons stuck in a rut, where being untracked was a positive development.

Man-card

Man-card.

Started out as ultra-bros saying it, as in you lost your man-card if you were out shopping with your girlfriend and held her purse for a minute while she changed. Seemed like it was just guys over compensating.

Then it hit the mainstream and MIller Lite started using it.

I was just always bothered that people cared about being judged a "man", rather than just being.
