Texas humorist and country singer Kinky Friedman appeared live on ESPN's "Outside The Lines" Wednesday to comment on the budding friendship between New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
But in an awkward moment that caught host Bob Ley off guard, Friedman said the pair's "bromance" was much more than friendly and called it "the most important, latent homosexual relationship since Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson."
Friedman reluctantly smoothed over his words after Ley asked him if he really meant it.
Apparently Friedman, a former Texas gubernatorial candidate, wasn't finished. According to CNN, he later called Christie, who claims he's a longtime Cowboys fan, an "anti-Texas, thin-sock wearing son of a b----." That's when Ley cut him off and apologized for Friedman's remarks.
The governor and Jones hung out together in the Cowboys owners' box during Sunday's wild card victory over the Detroit Lions. It wasn't the first time they paired up to watch a game but, the sight of the traitor hugging Jones created a social media blitz by Giants and Eagles fans in New Jersey.
And it seems Friedman has his own take on it.

I'm thinking OTL would like a do over booking Kinky Friedman. It's not the Imus Show. Disney folks have to be squirming.
