I was catching up on the Colbert Reports that are currently clogging up my TiVo, watched one from about 3 weeks ago. Colbert was talking about the World Cup with Alexi Lalas a few days before the final, the conversation turned to the kind of stuff players say to each other.
Lalas mentioned that players constantly insult each other to try and put each other off their game, and as language is normally a problem it always ends up the same, he said they always just end up insulting each other's mother.
Must be just about the first time Lalas has ever got one of his predictions right.
