Ben Affleck appeared on Bill Simmons’ talk show Any Given Wednesday and sounded off about a topical NFL controversy in the most bizarre way.
The 43-year-old dropped the F-word 18 times throughout the interview, which seemed more like a one-sided rant.
Ben could be noticed slurring his words as he passionately discussed his views on the NFL’s investigation into New England Patriots star Tom Brady’s use of under-inflated balls.
“Deflategate is the ultimate bullsht fing outrage, of sports ever. It’s so f*ing stupid,” he began the five-minute rant.

Despite what everyone on social media thinks of his riled-up speech, Ben defended his choice of words as he joked about the incident on Twitter afterwards.
“For those of you keeping score at home, I gave exactly 18 fcks about my Pats. Upon reflection, 12 probably would have been sufficient,” The Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice* actor wrote.
He added: “We Boston fans have always been known for our subtlety. One of my favourite interviews; hope you get to see the entire episode. #GoPats.”
Meanwhile, his estranged wife Jen is looking more radiant than ever while proceedings for their divorce are under way.
The 44-year-old actress was spotted leaving a Los Angeles gym on Wednesday with a post-workout glow.
On Thursday, RadarOnline reported that the Hollywood couple held an intense meeting to discuss the press surrounding their rocky marriage.
Ben was apparently furious about the recent stories leaked about their relationship, but the pair “have agreed to call a truce on making each other look bad,” according to a source.
The couple, who share children Violet, 10, Seraphina, seven, and Samuel, four, from their 10-year marriage, are expected to finalise their divorce later this year.
The power couple announced their shock split in June last year, with reports emerging since of Ben’s infidelity with a nanny.
