Last week, Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss had a good Saturday. After beating LSU, he was so excited that he forgot to take his mouthpiece out for much of his postgame TV interview. Then, as the interview ended, he gave ESPN’s Holly Rowe the school’s famous “Hotty Toddy” cheer with a new word wedged into the middle. The word, as every iPhone autocorrect user knows, rhymes with “ducking.”
The next day came the apology. Chambliss said his emotions ran high after the game, he got caught up in the moment, and he apologized to Rowe and everyone who had been listening. The country accepted it and moved on. He has since become the Heisman favorite, and nobody’s children appear to have been harmed.
