I hate hearing the pitchers mound called “the bump” so using it once is an overuse imo

They've got a lot of dudes out there. That team is full of dudes.
Can't stand this.
The red area. Why have people started calling it the red area instead of the redzone?
He can spin it.
He's got that dog in him.

Throwing into a tight window. 90% of the announcers have no idea what it means and say if for any throw. I’ve heard it used on hitches and quick outs where there’s no defender anywhere to impede the throw at all.

When a ref explains a penalty or ruling and then goes to say where the ball will be spotted and leads with: “By rule, the ball will be placed at….”
By rule? As opposed to what? By however you feel? We assume it’s “by rule”

Pin their ears back.
The overused phrase I've noticed is announcers pointing out that a QB is "going through his progressions".

The "late flag.."
According to announcers, just about every flag is a "late flag," wtf does that mean?
Also mixing sports, like when the QB throws the home run ball.

He’s playing with a “chip on his shoulder”.
