On Saturday morning, ESPN College GameDay analyst Desmond Howard caused a stir when he quoted a “Chappelle’s Show” clip.
He was heard on camera saying “Is Des gonna have to choke a b–ch?” which is from the popular sketch.
He apologized later on during the show, and then took to Twitter afterward to say he didn’t realize the reference was so obscure:
Guys, guys, guys. I didn't realize this joke was so obscure. https://t.co/YA9vRLomJJ https://t.co/J8GRL4KKhW

It’s not that the sketch is outdated, it’s that you can’t say “b–ch” on live television. Howard apologized for it, so it’s over now.
It will, however, go down as one of the funniest moments in GameDay history, along with Lee Corso casually dropping and f-bomb a few years ago in Houston.
