Stupid and/or annoying statements in sports

Sportsnet guys are the absolute worst.

 

The coach "took a good timeout". Has anyone ever taken a bad one? (no need to paste any Chris Webber photos)

A receiver "runs precise routes". Just say that he's white

 

"Dribble-drive"
Show me someone who drives without dribbling and I'll show you a travel. Chick Hearn loved to say "dribble-drive" and every half-ass broadcaster who ever heard him say it has since taken ownership of it.

In golf..."course management."
"Smith's game has really matured and you can really notice that with his course management."
Oh, OK. So he's more adept at keeping the caddies in line and making sure the fairways get watered?

 

I'm guessing he passed the runner in front of him just past second base.

Batter out, credited with a double and three RBI.

 

Some idiot on TSN this morning described Nick Markakis's homer against the Jays last night as heading to "Yank It City, population: ball".

What the fuck?

 

Anytime an athletic event is referred to as a "battle."

Where are the land mines and battle axes?

 

"Toe the rubber."
