WATCH: 'We don't say that word!' - Burnley part-owner JJ Watt scolds wife & ex-USWNT star Kealia Ohai Watt for speaking name of rivals Blackburn Rovers

  • Watts bought stake in Burnley
  • Quizzed about knowledge of club
  • JJ refused to mention Blackburn

WHAT HAPPENED? The pair took part in a quiz to test their knowledge about the club and were asked to name their biggest rivals.

When ex-USWNT star Kealia went to mention Rovers, former NFL hero Watt jumped in to warn her not to utter their name, saying on NBC Sports: "Nope. Don't say it. We don't say that word. I also can't say the word that we do say. All you need to know is that we did the double on them this season and it was sweet. We also won the league at Ewood Park."
