NFL referee Ed Hochuli is known for his gigantic guns and lengthy penalty explanations, but one comment that he made during Monday Night Football between the New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks caught the attention of everyone on social media.

When Hochuli was explaining a call, he decided to say that he “did not let the team because we were stretching out balls.”

The teenager in all of us is still chuckling.

Here is a video of Hochuli’s call:
