Former United States defender Alexi Lalas blasted the national team amid its current struggles to qualify for the World Cup, calling the players "underperforming, tattooed millionaires."
After losing to Costa Rica and drawing in Honduras this month, the U.S.'s qualification hopes will go down to the final day of CONCACAF qualifying, and if they can not improve on their current fourth-place standing, could move on to an intercontinental playoff against Australia or Syria in November.
And Lalas, now a commentator for Fox Sports, made his feeling clear, player by player, on a live televised tirade during Sunday night's broadcast of the Seattle Sounders-LA Galaxy game.
