Well, I'll actually let this one slide. The QB didn't pose with one hand up like Lady Liberty, but he did fake the pass.
The misuse of football terms and cliches has started to annoy me. Announcers tend to refer to all end around plays as "reverses", even if the ball didn't actually reverse directions. I heard people say that both the KC Chiefs and NY Giants "backed in" to the playoffs, when they won the games they had to win. You only "back in" if you lose your games, but other teams lose so that you get in anyway. Now they are throwing around "hook and ladder", "flea flicker", and "statute of liberty", with no regard.
