    I gotcha. The moto gp and wsbk announcers describe nearly every pass that happens in a race as "classic" in some form or fashion. Once I noticed it.... bugs me for some reason. Fucking Greg White finally got to me last year with that Daneeeeeeelo Petrucci but regular ole Danilo Lewis.

    I used to prefer the British race announcers until I noticed
    how they turn everything into a question.

    "Well, that's the fast way around the track, isn't it now?"
    "He really knows how to flog that bike, doesn't he now?"
    "This is typical Silverstone weather, isn't it now?"

    Stop, just stop.

    Every time there is any sort of incident, one of the announcers immediately acts as if he is a “steward”. I am now triggered by the word “steward.”

    Actually, the only phrase that immediately comes to mind is “you’re 20/25 in your left eye, what else (other than flying) do you want to do with your career.” 30+ years ago and it still impacts every day.

    My Dad used a specific phrase as. “Fill in the blank” in his part of a conversation. You were supposed to I guess know what he meant or something.

    Whenever I hear that used now. My brain gets a cramp. I miss my Dad. But not that part.

    Have you noticed that the UK host with the long verbal pauses also sounds like he's inhaling with his tongue sticking out? Not sure how else to describe it but it's a bit annoying as well.

    I don’t hear that much anymore, I believe “for sure” has taken its place. Seems every race car driver, and motorcycle racer spits that out repeatedly at every interview.
