By far the most misused word in the sports world for most of it's history be play by play commentators...Sportswiters, etc.

Ironic

"It's ironic that Tom Brady is playing for the Bucs because he already had a house in Tampa!".

" It's ironic that the Jets beat the Bills by 3 points because last year the Bills beat the Jets by 3 points!"

I don't know when it happened but the sports world decided that irony meant coincidence.

99% of the population thinks irony means coincidence or bad luck.


The one I hate is “let’s go!!” which is said by EVERY player of every sport at every level. And of course, “literally” is also my least favorite.
