There are a few reasons why it didn’t shock me that Jason Kelce joked — I’m pretty sure he was joking, like he said! — that Dallas was the “butthole and armpit of America” before the Cowboys’ Monday Night Football loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
First off, he was riffing off Mina Kimes calling Springfield “the armpit of America’s butt-crack” on the Simpsons alternate broadcast. Second: this is a dude who played over a decade for the Philadelphia Eagles. I’m sure he had to deal with a lot of trash talk and who knows what from die-hard Cowboys fans over the years having played them twice a year.
Third, it’s Jason Kelce. He likes to push the envelope! It’s just ribbing like he does with his brother Travis.
