The Dallas Cowboys kicked off their Monday Night Football season with a humorous twist when they substituted Cooper Rush for Homer Simpson, the famous Simpsons character, as quarterback. The unconventional move paid off when Simpson threw a touchdown pass to wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, giving the Cowboys an early lead over the Cincinnati Bengals. Social media was flooded with jokes about “touch-diddly-down” after Simpson led the team into the end zone for a score, making for a lighthearted start to the alternate broadcast.
