Smart money in the office here is leaning towards his mother and some farm animals.

My guess is that it wasn't anything worse than the average 8yd old hears in the schoolyard. I wonder if the Italian player said it in French, Italian, or English. I tip my cap to him. You would think a language barrier would render most trash talk moot. Besides, trash talk should have zero impact at that level. The guy is an idiot.

Exactly right, Rob.

Regardless of what was said or implied, Zidane blew it. He lost his cool and quite possibly threw away France's chance of winning. The Italian player outmaneuvered him.
