The Josh Innes Show - The Kelce Apology

Episode Date: November 5, 2024

Jason Kelce decided to apologize for breaking that dudes phone and subsequently calling him a slur. I don't really think Kelce needed to apologize. But, this is what he does. He's constantly in need of attention. Have you ever actually been in a fist fight? Why do old people like to fight so much? Also, I go into a random diatribe about how miserable Travis Kelce looks...

All right, kiddos, Jason Kelsey had to put on a suit last night and apologize for grabbing that Jamoak's phone and breaking it and then basically calling that dude the F gay slur. It's a very fascinating study here in how we react to certain things. So basically, you know, the story is walking around the campus at Penn State. Guy says, Hey, what does it feel that your brother's an F gay slur because he's dating Taylor Swift. Now, I don't believe you're actually referring to him as gay. When you do this, it kind of goes back to, I think there was a South park episode about it where they do the whole breakdown of how like saying something's gay doesn't mean something is is homosexual it just means it's gay say like what that breakdown and uh so i don't think he was calling travis kelsey gay because look he's we assume banging taylor swift we assume she has a vagina that works we assume that they bang on the reg if that's the case i guess he is not gay so obviously he's not calling the dude gay in the homosexual sense he's calling him gay in the like oh that's gay sense whatever point being in all of this it upset his brother jason kelsey to the point that he had to grab that jamoke's phone and say, roar, I'm breaking

your phone. And who's the F now? So he had to go on television and apologize for this. Jilly brought up a point, and I don't know if it's accurate or not, but I think it is. Well, I hadn't seen this. She had seen it already. I hadn't gotten home yet. She watched it.

She's like, you got to watch the Jason Kelsey apology. So I'm watching this and she's like, he's wearing a suit. Does he ever wear a suit? Like, I don't think he does. Like, he seems kind of like Mark Harmon in summer school type of guy. Like, he's kind of the wacky substitute slash like summer school teacher that wears the wacky shirts and shit. I don't think he ever wears suits. He may have at some point.

But he's wearing a suit and it's a very serious apology. You have to apologize because some jamoke upset you to the point that you broke his phone, and that's not me. I met hate with hate, he says. I met hate with hate. And he goes on television and apologizes for this in a heated moment I decided to greet hate with hate I fell short this week this whole thing just feels like bullshit the whole thing like like it's absurd this whole story is stupid like to me and I know I mentioned this yesterday I think that Jason Kelsey has a lot of shit pent up for whatever

reason. He just looked like he was in a shitty mood at that moment. Anyway, maybe he's tired of being in the Taylor Swift world. Maybe he's not. Maybe he just wants to go back to living his life as a normal kind of everyday NFL offensive lineman jamoke that isn't in 14 fucking commercials and children's books and pinball machines and cereal boxes and soup commercials. Maybe he just wants to go back to the good old days of being sort of anonymous outside of Philadelphia. And maybe it's finally caught up with him. And this guy pissed him off and he legitimately broke his phone and says, Now what? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

I still am of the belief that he knew it was an opportunity to make more news. And he knew that everybody was going to be on his side for it. So he just took advantage of the opportunity knowing a camera would be there because there's cameras everywhere. He broke the guy's phone and now he's somehow a hero for it. It's weird how we make people heroes. I guess the guy that was saying the shit to him on the sidewalk was a dope too. But one thing I've been seeing from a lot of people is, this is an era of people that don't live with fear of getting punched in the mouth. They clearly didn't get hit in the face when they were kids. I want to know how many people were legitimately

in fistfights when they were kids. I hear this from a certain generation of people. I think Chris Long may have said this, like, these people don't know what it's like to get punched in the mouth so they think they can do this. And he's's right the internet has created a world of people who are completely comfortable being assholes to people i mean it's obvious go back and just look at what people do i told you i lived in philadelphia this even before twitter was a huge huge thing when i lived in philadelphia people would yell out of their windows that i was a piece of shit and to go fuck myself i never felt compelled to fight any of those people because words are not going to drive me to fight. They might piss me off and they might cause me to send off a bunch of fucking angry tweets, but I'm not going to

risk everything I have, which at the time was something now isn't much. But back then I was not going to risk that to go get into a fist fight with somebody because they called me a gay slur. Like, let's go there too. Like, what kind of overly sensitive, wannabe macho guy with all the shit that people probably say about Jason Kelsey on the internet, which I'm going to guess is a lot because I think most people are sick of seeing Jason Kelsey. Even Philadelphia McDougals are sick of Jason Kelsey.

I'm going to guess that guy has gotten a lot of shit from a lot of people and has heard a lot of negative shit. What is it about this particular moment hearing somebody say the F gay slur that sets you like over the top? I don't know. Like, look, you know this about me. I wouldn't say that I'm overly sensitive, although many would. I wouldn't call myself overly sensitive, but I would say that I'm easily triggered by stupidity, says the sensitive guy. That is the Josh Ennis way of spinning sensitivity into I am just a guy who gets overly annoyed by stupidity. That is me. That is how I fight. When I see something that I know is wrong, instead of just saying, you know what? Let it be and let them be stupid. I feel compelled to fight with these people over and over, knowing that I'm not going

to change their opinion. That's how it was in Philadelphia. Like my old boss, Andy, he'd get emails about how much I suck. And he had like a whole list of things that he would respond to people with trying to turn them and they were all good points like like people would call and they or they message him and argue and say he's not even from here and you go you know who else was from Houston that came to Philly Harry Callas and he had this whole list of people and just things trying to sway people and that's

kind of where I learned this sometimes you turn people other times they would tell you to go fuck yourself like that's just kind of how it was but now that's how I am too often when I see people who are stupid instead of just saying, Josh, there's no need to fight with these stupid people. They're stupid and you're not going to change their opinion. They are fanboy dopes. They've made up their mind. You will not change their opinion. They are online social media dipshits.

You are not changing their mind. So are online, social media dipshits. You are not changing their minds, so why do you continue to fight? And I, honest to God, think I've done a much better job of that. Because I'll still, like, here's what I, look, I know that this is a story about Kelsey, but I'm going to Kelsey this thing now,

make it about myself. That's the Kelsey way. I get a, like, I retweet some things, and if I'm in a shitty mood, I'll still retweet a lot of stuff. But I've gotten to a comfortable point where people will comment on shit that like they think they know about me. And I'm just like, fuck it. I'm not even going to fight with these people because I know I can't change your opinion.

Right. I get that all the time. Like you'll see some of my tweets that I retweet and you're like, boy, Josh just keeps retweeting people. Trust me, there's a lot of shit that I just fucking mute because there's no point in fighting it like like the other day when I said that Embiid was soft I got I started getting a lot of comments from people who don't follow me but know who I am or it just happened to google me and they're like oh you're that guy yeah coming from the guy who got fired for being racist I'm like well I could go through the whole you know spiel about trying to explain how posting a picture of Al Jolson to comment on someone else's racism isn't racism.

But if I do that, you're not going to win with these people because they're fucking stupid and they've already made up their minds. That's the thing about people. People don't really have open minds. People have already made up their mind and you're not going to change their opinion my biggest issue i've had for most of my life is i fight in this this world where i'm like josh you can change their opinion just watch and i'm like well no this is stupid i can't give you all the details on this story but a friend of mine had um i'm not going to tell you who or anything like this but a guy i know had um an athlete slide into his DMs, a famous person, slide into his DMs

and say some very bad shit to him. Some bad shit to him and about his family and everything else, like really bad shit. And he showed me some of the bad shit. And I'm like, this dude's fucked. Like, this is some vile, evil shit. And it's not like my friend had said anything terrible about him or anything like that.

Like, he's just, you know, he's a guy on the radio giving opinions. Like, these weren't incendiary remarks about this person. I don't even know that they were really even about this person. But this person, this athlete, slid into this dude's DMs and just starts saying horrible things about him. He starts commenting on pictures of people in his family. I mean, vile, repugnant shit that you would expect from Philadelphia McDougal

who's upset that you said the birds suck, but not the kind of shit you'd expect from someone who's paid to be a professional athlete. And look, there's nothing wrong with athletes responding sometimes. Some people do it way too much, like, I don't know, like Kevin Durant. Some people do it and do it well. Some people just ignore it. This person went into this other person's DMs

and just started saying awful, v repugnant shit and i was like this is awful and um and he was talking with me he goes do you think i should like talk about this i'm like no because fan bases they don't care what this person did they They're fanboys. There's not like, they're just going to look at you and still rip you for it because they're fans and they will do anything to defend their dude. I mean, there's still people that defend Deshaun Watson. That's mostly based on his skin color that they defend him,

but they still defend him. Like those people still exist. So if you think that there's people that still defend Diddy and Cosby and there are women that marry Ted Bundy in prison, like people are stupid. So you could post this and you have the receipts to say that this person is a cocksucking motherfucker, a terrible human that said vile shit for no reason.

The majority of people who see that at least publicly and in the Twitter sphere, will be on that person's side because that person plays for whatever team that person plays for. And they're always going to defend that person because fans are sycophants. That's what they are. So when it goes back to these kind of things, when you like talk about trying to fight with people and try to change their opinion of you, it's stupid to do. It's a fruitless endeavor. And I'm gradually learning that more and more as a person myself,

but there is no reason to engage with these people. But sometimes you're in a bad mood. It happens. I think what happened is Jason Kelsey's in a bad mood and there was some shit really pent up on that dude. All right.

Because no real mature adult, when they're called a gay slur, gets to that point that they're going to break a dude's phone and then retaliate by saying who's the f now which in and of itself is kind of offensive because if you really think about it then he called that dude a gay slur like whatever but i think you have to be a real real small person like a real kind of mental midget to get incensed over someone calling you gay right that leads me to believe that there was a lot more that was pent up and like something was going through this dude's mind on that particular day that set him off and then i think he saw it as an opportunity to be set off

and he knew that cameras would be there maybe i'm giving him too much credit for thinking this through but they are obviously media savvy people because somehow cameras always find Jason Kelsey with his shirt off chugging beer with people. So the camera certainly finds him. But that's weird. Like, like, that's why it was fun to fuck with people like Missanelli, because there's something about certain people. And this kind of goes back to the well, you've never been hit in the face type of thing, right? Missanelli was fun to fuck with because he was one of these old school Italian type meatheads that thought he was like in the good fellas and like thought he was a bad motherfucker. When in reality, he was one of the shortest grown men I've ever been around.

The dude was like five foot four and built like a, like it looked like a lesbian, like someone's lesbian grandma, like Napoleon Dynamite's grandma. Like when you say, Josh, who do you like? Missanelli is super liberal. I'm like, well, fucking look at him. You know, he looks like he could be on MSNBC sitting next to Rachel Maddow. He'd be in the middle of a threesome with Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann. He'd be getting pegged by Rachel Maddow. Like that's what he looks like so like it

was easy to fuck with him because like people like he and his brother always wanted to fight so you talk shit about him and you knew that they just get enraged and want to fight people like that's never how I've ever been like I've never been like oh I want to fight somebody now you could argue and say well Josh that's because you're kind of a pussy that just talks shit and doesn't bag it up look as we've discussed i have gone up to multiple people that have wanted to fight me and i've said go ahead that happened at radio row not to bring that up again look i didn't know like i think what well that's kind of a similar situation eventually what happened is um seth who is now a very docile calm human being i don't know if he's in therapy or

what but like he's just like now super chill but at that time was super enraged and he was easy to piss off like look it was I have fucking twerp and shit on the radio talking shit about people that were actually my friends absolutely should I have did I deserve to get my ass kicked for talking shit probably right but like I at least went up to him see people like to act like i got like told off and i got my ass kicked no but i went up there fully anticipating getting my ass kicked but it was for the bit you had to do it people instead of ripping me for that they should be blowing me saying josh you're so committed to the bit that you were going to let a football player punch in the fucking teeth i'm like yeah but if it would have helped my ratings i would

have done it because i'm a radio jamoke that's what i do but and then the same thing happened with miss an ellie now miss an ellie was not a miss an ellie was never going to hit anybody and although i know he's hit a producer before but miss an ellie ain't going to hit some motherfucker that's a foot taller than him which i think i might have been a foot and a half taller than this guy guy's got to be like five foot three I'm six foot two I'm at least a foot taller than this dainty lesbian man here this waif of a lesbian so like he might have taken a swing at me and that's I will and then when people misreport shit and report lies that's when I get pissed off so when that story came out it was Josh Ennis was afraid to fight Mike Missanelli as I've told you this a thousand times, I have no need to lie to you.

I don't lie to you guys on here. I spent the last podcast telling you how I blew all my fucking money. There's no reason for me to lie to you. I'm not a dishonest person on here. I will tell you the truth. Just like I didn't pee my fucking pants when the cuz confronted me. Whatever. The fact that people believe that is the dumbest shit ever.

It just shows the juvenile childlike mind of people in philadelphia they're dopes but um that kind of goes to they're just going to believe what they want to believe but in this case when the guy said you won't tell me all this shit to my face and i literally leaned down like you know like the famous uh like saturday evening post picture where like the umpire is looking down at the baseball player or vice versa right the the illustration where one's super tall or like for a more modern reference like the cover of the movie um little big league where the umpire is staring down at at uh at uh bill haywood billy haywood it was like that i leaned down and i literally told him you fucking suck because i knew i couldn't i wasn't going to just sit there and go

oh no i didn't say i had to do it i didn't get hit in the fucking face but the story became josh jenis backs down for five i wasn't going to throw a punch at the guy i'm not a fucking neanderthal like these guys like these hard-ons from a certain generation are neanderthals and somehow like their reaction to everything is oh i'm gonna punch you in the fucking mouth now again i'm not saying I wouldn't have deserved to get hit in the mouth. If he would have hit me in the mouth, I wouldn't have said he had no right to do it.

Like, I mean, it would have been a crime because like use your words, dipshit. But like still, I would have gotten it just like I would have gotten if Jason Kelsey would have punched the guy in the face. But does it make any sense? Is that the thing you should do in that scenario right like why did you snap on this guy why was it this guy calling you a gay slur let me tell you if

you're a dude that gets worked up and ready to fight because somebody calls you a gay slur then you got deeper issues than you let on you're a fake hard-on tough guy like that's like you're that's soft to get worked up over that like that's why I thought the whole situation was strange everything about it was just kind of weird and then last night he's on tv in a suit being all serious it's like he just fucked an intern or something like that like he stuck a cigar in monica whiskey says snatch and he has to be very serious it's a very serious monday morning uh or monday countdown sunday monday nfl countdown he's got to sit there with his boys on the set with them they're all quiet they have to set him up for it like all right jason tell us how you feel and he's i'm sorry i i really let everybody down. I think everybody has seen

on social media what happened this week. Listen, I'm not happy with anything that took place. I'm not proud of it. In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don't think that's a productive thing. I really don't. I don't think it leads to discourse and the right way to go about things. In that moment, I fell down to a level that I shouldn't have. The bottom line is, I try to live my life by the golden rule. That's what I, my God! You called, like, the guy was calling you names, you broke his fucking phone, like, you didn't get, like,

why is this worthy of this long-ass presidential I did not have sexual relations with that woman, I have sinned type of apology. Jesus fucking Christ, dude. I try to treat people with common decency and respect, and I'm going to keep doing that moving forward. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Guy called you a name. You said, fuck around and find out. You broke his fucking phone. It was probably half staged anyway jesus christ my god dude oh i think most people are sick of the cut like honestly i'm not

even sick of travis kelsey first of all you don't see him as much anymore second of all the guy's catching passing yards for me now third of all i watched the manning cast last night they never showed fucking taylor swift so that was great like Like, I don't even dislike Travis anymore. Travis almost looks broken. At least he catches passes, but you look at Travis on the sideline and my boy looks broken. Like he just looks like something's been sucked out of him. It might be because his hot ass ex-girlfriend, you want to talk about some shit. So his hot ass ex-girlfriend, is her name Kayla? Let me see if that's her name. For Halloween, his ex-girlfriend,

her name is, where'd you go, babe? Kayla Nicole. Hot, thick system, my friends. So Kayla Nicole, the ex of Travis Kelsey, she who's probably had to incur a lot of hate from these dipshit Swifties

people who claim to be the nicest people in the world. Friendship bracelets. And why you got to be so mean? And I'm a 40 year old woman who goes to the Taylor Swift show and cries when she sings red. Those people are also vile, mean people on the internet when they have to defend mother and that's what they call her mother that's not a cult but kayla nicole is the ex-girlfriend of travis kelsey and for halloween she dressed as sierra she of course the wife of mr rusty wilson who is back to being a good nfl quarterback and a guy you should bet on to throw for passing yards. Thank you very much. But she posted pictures of her in various Sierra outfits. And she looks fucking hot as shit.

I mean, curvy and thick and hot. And her skin's beautiful. And she has moves like look i mean this is a compliment she has the kind of moves where you look at her she's like she knows how to work her way around a man's genitalia then you look at taylor swift videos and you see her concert videos and watch her dancing and you're like bro there ain't no way that dude is getting the same satisfaction from dipping his wick and taylor as he was hooking up with this Kayla Nicole, who without question knows how to work around a man's genitalia. She knows what she's doing.

Now, it could be a situation where it's a total fraud, where she looks all hot as shit, and then she kind of sucks at everything. And maybe Taylor Swift is a super freak that actually pegs him. Two pegs references in one episode. Now, it could be a situation where it's a total fraud where she looks all hot as shit and then she kind of sucks at everything. And maybe Taylor Swift is a super freak that actually pegs him. Two pegs references in one episode. But anyway, you look at that and then you look at Taylor Swift. It's funny, and I don't even really have anything against Taylor Swift. I just find it funny that you watch her dance and you can tell she's trying to be sexual. But it just doesn't work.

Like, can you imagine like like Travis is sitting there in bed like you see? Oh, there's always the scene in the movie where like the guy's laying in bed and the chick's about to come out of the bathroom and some lingerie and he's like ready to fucking go. Trying to think of some movie examples of that. But, you know, like the road trip I had, I think, had a scene like that. Oh, shallow how whatever. Like they're in bed. he's like, yeah, it's about to go down. And then like Taylor walks out and she's like doing her weird, skinny white girl, sexual moves. And you're like, if not for the fact that you're Taylor Swift, this isn't even a remotely sexual thing, but because you're Taylor Swift and you're the most famous person on the planet, um, this is neat. But this isn't a super sexual thing because you still dance like we're watching the Mickey Mouse Club.

She dances like someone's drunk aunt at a VFW hall. They're at a VFW hall and there's a dance at the VFW or something. And aunt's had a little too much to drink and she just does some really shitty dancing not like the good kind of drunk like you would see it like a roadside bar where like the allman brothers are playing on the jukebox and bob seger and some chicks like trashily grinding on you like britney spears and her videos you know when you watch her in her house where she's i guess under house arrest and just grinds all day. You're like, that's hot, trashy lady dancing. This is like, mom had too many glasses of wine and now she's trying to be sexual and dad's like gonna bang her,

but he's like thinking, like he's thinking of things in his spank bank before he does, like that's how he gets going. Like to me me for Travis Kelsey to bang Taylor Swift he has to think of Kayla Nicole so like he goes to her gram sees these hot ass pictures of her as Sierra and he's like closes his eyes takes a mental picture like that sound effect at the beginning of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre that's the sound of him taking spank bank pictures of Kayla Nicole so whenever he's having to force himself to bang Taylor Swift he's thinking of the actual That's the sound of him taking spank bank pictures of Kayla Nicole. So whenever he's having to force himself to bang Taylor Swift, he's thinking of the actual hot chick who made his penis so happy. But now he's so deep into this relationship with Taylor Swift and he can't get out.

And every time I see that man on the sideline, I see a broken man. And maybe Jason's broken too by proxy. Maybe he's also broken. I don't know. But when I watch Travis, he just doesn't have that same kind of fun arrogance. He's got a weird haircut and he just kind of sits there and he just never looks happy. Now, I could be wrong. He might be unhappy because he's missing his lady while he's playing football. Those moments away make him sad. That could be it. But I think what he's missing is people like Kayla Nicole. Curvy, thick, beautiful skin. Obviously know what to do with their body.

Not Olive Oil, who he fucks now. But anyway, how the fuck did I get into that? Boy, I don't know how I get to where I get. 25 minutes ago, we're talking about the apology of Jason Kelsey. Now we're talking about his brother missing the beautiful black ladies he used to bang. I also like how at the end of the Jason Kelsey apology, the two dudes on the set are like, well said, brother. Well said. Oh, shut up. Can I tell you who's insufferable? Ryan Clark. My God, who decided that Ryan Clark was the arbiter of everything that is good and righteous in the world? My God, I don't know

that there's a more sanctimonious human on television. And that's ESPN, where there's a lot of, well, actually ESPN's not nearly as sanctimonious anymore. But Ryan Clark is like super sanctimonious and somehow he has been anointed like the leader of self-righteousness in the sports media world. He and Rex Chapman who just sits on Twitter and judges people all fucking day. All while acting like they're super nice people but they just spend time judging people if you don't agree with them. But everything Ryan Clark does is like this over-the-top, like super important thing. And I'm like, bro, just chill out.

You played football. Like have your opinions and like I'm not judging you for that. Like I just find you annoying because someone has determined and told you that everything you say is the most important fucking thing they've ever heard. So every time it's like this super deep important thing and we got to get ryan clark's thoughts on this super deep social thing before we move on to anything else it's

like jason kelsey had to be forgiven by ryan clark which let's be fair he used a gay slur you know who doesn't give two fucks about gay slurs fucking athletes go back through time now if jason kelsey would have used the n-word then it would have been a whole different story but like he used a slur for gay people and athletes don't give two fucks about using that slur see bryant comma kobe who called the the ref a gay so i mean you see it all the time i'm not offended by it but what i'm telling you is that's the reality of it. So it's easy for two athletes to sit there and defend their boy for essentially calling the guy a gay slur. You know what he actually kind of did? He kind of like what it reminded me of cry baby and then eventually Ralphie said let's fucking dance and he knocks him on his ass just starts punching him in the fucking face just

wailing on this dude and then cried afterwards that's how I imagine this went with Jason Kelsey Jason's like finally on the verge of fucking snapping guy finally sets him over the top by calling him the F gay slur he goes over throws his phone who's the F now bitch and then as he slur he goes overthrows his phone who's the F now

bitch and then as he walks away he's probably like crying and then like his mom's like it's okay it's okay everything's gonna be fine that's how I see that one going down anyway we'll do more later
