Blue sweats, stocking cap: Dallas gets an unusual penalty call

A CBS Sports Short turns a referee's unusually specific explanation into a clip with more than 830,000 views before its first full day.

First time we've heard this one

The referee doesn't give a jersey number. Instead, he identifies the Dallas offender by his blue sweats and stocking cap, then explains that the player came onto the field to celebrate.

That is the small sideline drama behind CBS Sports' Short, "First time we've heard this one". Taken from a FOX NFL broadcast of Dallas against Indianapolis, it shows an unsportsmanlike conduct call with rather more wardrobe detail than the usual penalty announcement.

"We had an un-uniformed player in the blue sweats and a stocking cap come on to the field to celebrate," the referee says. Below him, footage highlights the person running onto the field with a yellow circle. The celebration costs Dallas a 15-yard penalty.

The Short's views are far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience for the format, and its comment section is unusually busy too. Viewers compare the referee's precise wording to a police description, while others return to the old sporting instruction to act as though you've been there before.

CBS Sports leaves the explanation itself to carry the joke: an NFL penalty announcement that doubles as an outfit description.
