Brandon LaFell wears inappopriate t-shirt to high school, kind of apologizes

Because swear words are bad, Patriots receiver Brandon LaFell is under fire.

Except not really. LaFell was home in Houston this past weekend and spontaneously decided to go see his high school football team play.

He did not think to take off his "F**K STATISTICS" shirt first though.

TMZ:
Parents at Lamar High School in Houston tell TMZ Sports they were in shock seeing the football star take the field ... to cheer on his alma mater ... with the the four-letter word across his chest.

But a rep for the wide receiver tells TMZ Sports ... Brandon wasn't trying to shock the kids -- he was just at home and "when he realized his high school was playing he shot out of the house" and forgot he was wearing the shirt.

TMZ apparently reached out to the school to see if anyone had complained. No one has.
