NFL: Conor McGregor tried to explain his much-mocked throw

Conor McGregor showed up to the Dallas Cowboys' game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, and the UFC star clearly made his presence felt.

After giving the Cowboys a pregame pep talk, McGregor threw a football. In doing so, he gave NFL fans excellent meme material.

Well, McGregor absolutely took notice.

As NFL fans roasted McGregor's awkward throwing motion, McGregor took to Instagram and offered an explanation for the weird throw. It was the most McGregor explanation imaginable, which was basically a shameless plug for his suits and whiskey.

McGregor wrote:

Hahaha yous'r (expletive) ruthless on this side. I just didn't want to rip my custom @augustmcgregor baby blue billionaire blazer.
That was all, y'all.
Great job to the Cowboys today!
It's a Proper giddy up tonight in Dallas and I LOVE IT, see yous soon. @properwhiskey

But why would he be worried about ripping a blazer from his own brand? Couldn't he just get another one? After all, it is his clothing line.

Nice try, Conor.
