I've heard Lalas has stirred the pot around the USMNT and has said some out of line things.

What is the story? Is he a Glenn Guilbeau?

He is a jackass and has always been a jackass but he is our jackass so we deal with it.

He disagrees with Jurgy on a number of things.

He has strong opinions and is not afraid to share them. Moreover, he is not an humble person. It is natural that people will react to him in a wide manner: some will find him to be awesome while others will find him to be annoying. Regardless, he is entertaining.

In addition to the other points made, he gets in twitter fights with current USMNT players. Most pundits don't do that.

Lalas was incredibly nice when I talked to him in person. We agreed on every point with the USMNT in our 5 or so minute talk. Then again, our board has different views regarding our team.

People have thin skin. Alexi tells it like he sees it. People just get their panties in a wad because he doesn't see it the way he does.

He's great TV, knowledgable, connected...he's good at what he does.
