I would say I could do without players giving "110%" but that has apparently become accepted lexicon. I would have tried harder to make a good post but I only feel like giving 103% right now.

Sports officials and reporters asking players to "tell how you really feel or tell the truth" in articles then when a player or person in sports does so then the reporter or official of that sport then crucifying the player for doing what they asked them to do in the first place usually after saying "if you tell the truth everything will be better for you". Can you understand why players are reluctant to tell the truth under these circumstances ?

If I were a man of less refined tastes I'd have to suggest that you take a couple of plays off.

Since when do the Packers have some sort of proprietary ownership of having players jump into the stands? It's not as if that's some sort of longstanding tradition in Lambeau - it began in the 90's.

"Tackle", "sack" or "decent play" dances, face-contorting, muscle poses, etc.........When your team just happens to have the lesser number on the scoreboard.

Making a great football move. Dude's playing football, what kind of move is he supposed to be making, a great golf shot? Or a move on a cheerleader?
