Verbal Faux Pas, Jargon, Cliches, Boganisms, etc

To be fair, with stoppages, restarts, injury time, it can easily run out to 30 mins in real time.

True, but the "of football" bit made it an incorrect statement in my eyes.

 

[Boogers]

Spewing this didn't go anywhere. I tweeted it to a few radio stations and to Talking Footy and Campbell Brown

Nice try by the Footy Classified with the caption on this video. "Above the years"? Sounds to me like "above the ears".

You know you're having a bad day when Matthew Lloyd is the one getting it right.

Abbey Holmes, aka "Hole'mms", just said "on the contray", instead of "contrary". Hee hee, ha hee, what a dumb farkin bogan.
I've never heard that one. That's right up there with that chick pronouncing "debut" as "d'butt"

Slobbo: "They've been unquivocal in their support." Once again, this dumb, fat bogan is a 'chief' sporting journalist for one of the country's biggest-selling newspapers. FMD

At least Bruce wasn't there with his weekly 'they need the next goal' comment. He even says it in the first quarter of some games. I'd actually punch him if I was in the commentators box when he said that.

BT also said today's crowd was a record for Subi.


Well it would've been but...

That too LOL.

"The perfect start" after first goal of game is kicked.

Dal Santo's pronunciation of long i vowels is exruciating.

"We'll keep a close ooooiiii on him todeeeeey."

Wayne Carey constantly mispronouncing ‘his’ as ‘he’s’.

‘He’s disposal is flawless...’

DON'T GET ME FINISHED!! I hate that. It's "eera", or even "eeera". It's another American thing that's creeping in, especially in sporting spheres. I've said it before on here.
Tony Show and Daniel Harford are 2 of the worst with it

I can't believe a Hawthorn supporter would say that.

I think it was adam ramanaskaus re: adelaides injuries "x, y, z, and laird have all missed periods of games at the same time". A period of a game is defined in minutes and seconds. Of course they all missed minutes, sitting on the bench

 

[eth-dog]

Whenever I hear a commentator say "Hots up" I want to punch something. "Hots" isn't a ******* verb. "Heat" is a verb.
