Kelce: “You know listen, I think everyone’s seen on social media everything that took place this week. Listen, I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it and in a heated moment I chose to greet hate with hate. I just don’t think that’s a productive thing. I really don’t. I don’t think it leads to discourse and is the right way to go about things, and in that moment I fell down to a level that I shouldn’t have. So I think bottom line is, I try to live my life by the golden rule. That’s what I’ve always been taught. Treat people with common decency and respect, and I’m gonna keep doing that moving forward, even though I feel short this week, I’m gonna do that moving forward and continue to do that…”
So it’s not really an apology, but no one seems to care. 99.9% of the general public took Jason’s side and not the side of the Penn State crumb bum who called Travis Kelce a “F@****” and then shoved Jason while he was bent over. I got the sense that the ESPN suits might have Jason read a prewritten statement, like “I apologize for using homophobic language, blah blah” but they let him speak off the cuff instead.
The next order of business, now, is the Penn State crumb bum apologizing for acting like a douchebag.
