The following phrases need to be retired...

...immediately and forever. If a player or coach utters them again in a press conference, they should be fined for bad language:

"Take it one day/game at a time"
"He gave 110% effort"
"A win is a win"
"Give them a lot of credit"
"They wanted it more than we did"
"We weren't prepared"

Any others you'd like to see gone?

    CRASH
    Learn your cliches. Study them.
    Know them. They're your friends.

    Crash hands Nuke a small pad and pen.

    CRASH
    Write this down.
    (beat)
    "We gotta play 'em one day at a
    time."

    NUKE
    Boring.

    CRASH
    Of course. That's the point.
    (beat)
    "I'm just happy to be here and
    hope I can help the ballclub."

    NUKE
    Jesus.

    CRASH
    Write, write--"I just wanta give
    It my best shot and, Good Lord
    willing, things'll work out."

    NUKE STARTS WRITING them down.

    NUKE
    "...Good Lord willing, things'll
    work out."

    i want to see a college football player say when his team loses "It looks like they prayed harder than we did. God wasn't on our side."

    They had a lot of weapons.
    We won ugly.

    Prevent Defense, WTF is that suppose to mean, don't defenses try to prevent a score every time?

    Bend, but do not break.
