Hmmm, i dislike the phrase

"it's all to play for"

I think it's the most overused phrase on weather message boards
It doesn't really say anything.

Our language is full of useless phrases.

It's never just a nice day... it's:

Basically, a nice day

In the fullness of time, basically, at the end of the day, we may just
arrive at the conclusion that today we spent fifty percent of our
time, padding out our sentences with meaningless phrases. I'll touch
base with you later, and see if you agree

Exactly, a whole raft of cliches there.
