What are some of your favorites? Pet Peeves?

he's on pace to hit 600 home runs

Neil Funk (Bulls TV play by play):

I have an up and down relationship with this guy but one thing I love is turning on any bulls game and trying to figure out who the Designated Opposing Player Funk Shits On will be for the night. Usually you can tell right away when the DPNFSO bricks an early shot and Funk acts like it is some sort of crime against humanity. It's all bets off from there.

Please kindly place an apostrophe in the title where it belongs. Thank you.

Im’ with tree on this one

Lame on two counts .. bammer and md

Favorites:

The way Don Orsillo says, "The 2-2." And when a pitcher steps off the back of the rubber and picks up the rosin bag and he would say, "[Pitcher's Name] in the midst of a meeting with himself..."

Dennis Eckersley: everything he says.

I’m going to kill the next person who posts a Booger McFarland “back to you, Tess” meme.

They are not funny. You are not funny. Go fuck yourself. That shit was played out after like 2 days.

Complaining about accommodations on the road.

I hate when people say how great Romo is about his predicting the next play, when he is only right like half the time.

When the phrase "plays the game the right way" is used. We all know what that's supposed to mean at this point.

One of my favourites from the Jays that I think most announcers probably use: "He's just a baseball player."

Anyone else’s local broadcast crew do this?

Without fail the Mariners’ broadcasters say that a player “runs well.”

It drives me fkn crazy. Just say he is fast!

brent musburger was famous/infamous for this hackneyed call when a quarterback was under pressure and instead of taking a sack would throw the ball out of bounds: "that may be the best throw he makes all day."

Anything Mark Jackson says, especially "hand down, man down"

"Mama there go that man" is classic, though.

Bill Walton climaxing as Shaq dunked, "throw it down, big man, throw it down!"

No. That sucks too. He's terrible. God bless JVG though.
