Cliches We Can Do Without

Cupcake can also be used as describing a woman on some slang where I'm from. But I've never heard it on that way either its degrading.

What Barry said " Iron sharpens Iron" Renne just said it on dynamite with Mox v Claudio.

Doesn't make sense lol.

"And 1": This particular cliche isn't a problem when used accurately, but I've noticed it frequently being used when neither of the two necessary elements are present. The shot must be made, not just attempted, and a foul must be called, not just wished for. Announcers usually wait for the situation to be appropriate, but there seems to be an increasingly high number of fans near the crowd microphones who will yell it when neither the shot has been made nor the foul called.

While I'm at it, I'm not a big fan of calling the free throw line the "charity stripe", though that one seems to be on the decline.
