Every year around this time, Gene Collier of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette writes a column wherein he awards the “Trite Trophy”. He takes the dozens upon dozens of sports cliches and weaves them together with more than a generous helping of sarcasm and humor and comes up with the worst cliche of the year.
This year’s column is here. I won’t ruin it for you by telling you which cliche won the 24th Annual “Trite Trophy”. I will tell you that you’ll enjoy the commentary leading up to the presentation of the award as much as the award itself.
