Football (i.e. soccer to Americans):
All sports commentaries concerning big budget teams in Champions League/Uefa Cup broadcasts overrate players' actions by a mile.
"What an amazing/outstanding/sensational/world class/unsurpassed goal/pass/attempt/dribble/save by C.Ronaldo/Rooney/Henry/Messi/Kahn/*insert expensive or famous player's name here*."
Expensive and/or famous = brilliant. It's hilarious and annoying at the same time.
Oliver Kahn, for example, was supposed by many German commentators (and all Bayern fans of course) to only let in absolutely indefensible shots ("Here comes the slo-mo. Oh yes, indefensible, Kahn didn't have a chance"). Obviously the bad-tempered guy was a god-send goalkeeper and did not make a single mistake in his whole career (...hm, I personally recall the 2002 World Cup finals...).
But if a player/goalkeeper of a "minor" team makes an outstanding action, commentaries often go like "nice shot/decent save/not half bad".
