Dude. Lighten up a little. 。

NFL coach Dirk Koetter apologized through the media to the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday ... all because of a harmless joke made on Twitter by his team's social media department. 。

First things first: Remember how the Falcons blew a 28-3 Super Bowl lead against the New England Patriots a few months ago?

Of course you do; it pretty much became an instant internet meme. 。

"That was totally unprofessional and not smart, whoever's responsible for that. We want to be playing in the Super Bowl and we were home sitting on our butt while they were playing, so we got no room to be making fun of anybody that was in the Super Bowl, whether they won or not."。Koetter 。Koetter。
