"The previous play is under review"
No crap sherlock!!! I thought you were going back 15 plays
Just say "We may have screwed up...We gotta take another look....hold on"
And to add my own phrase or the way they announce it is "RPO" and then they proceed to say "or Run Pass Option". Why did you just say "RPO" if you are going to say it unabbreviated in the next breath? Say either one and let that be it.

I love that word. After a call is overturned, we dispute whether it should have been overturned. We dispute whether or not the evidence was indisputable.
And, if the call is not overturned ("The ruling on the field stands") we dispute that call and say the evidence was indisputable even though if it was overturned others would dispute that.

I’ve always thought about that.
“All in” means very tired.
“All out” means with great enthusiasm, determination, or maximum effort.

"High-Pointing the Ball" - the high point of the ball is somewhere halfway between the quarterback's hand and the receiver - not at the point of the catch.
As far as "indisputable" goes .... give them 30 seconds to relook at the play. If it is not so obvious in 30 seconds it is not likely to be indisputable.
"...the defender did not turn and look for the ball..." Dat's not in the rule book. Seems to have been made up by the TV Experts. Here’s how the 2020 NCAA rulebook defines defensive pass interference:
Defensive pass interference is contact beyond the neutral zone by a Team B player whose intent to
impede an eligible opponent is obvious and could prevent the opponent the opportunity of receiving a
catchable forward pass. When in question, a legal forward pass is catchable. Defensive pass
interference occurs only after a legal forward pass is thrown[.]

"He flushes it!" Is the player throwing turds through the hoop? If so, he has other problems.
"He squirts through the line!" That is just gross.

I also don’t like shy being used as a measure of distance, e.g. “He was just shy of the first down.”
Well, he should’ve been more confident!

"Trickeration"

I despise the word, "physicallity" or however it's spelled. Why can't we just say that a player has good physical skills, or is a physical player? Who made up this pretend word that's been everywhere the last few years?

“They just wanted it more”.
No they didn’t. The one basket that would have won it didn’t go in. Or the field goal was short.

There ain't nothing "Instant" about it.

"length" when describing a basketball player's attributes...
Jan 31, 2023, 5:08 PM
|
|
translated, it usually means he can't shoot at all and couldn't hit the ocean from a pier. Yes, he's 6-8 and his knuckles drag the ground when he walks out on the floor... but outside of maybe altering a couple shots before he fouls out, he's totally worthless.
