Wait, Wait...
As we sit in the middle of the FIFA women's World Cup championships, the guest contestant on this week's 'Not My Job' segment of the NPR quiz show Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me!, is particularly appropriate -- Kristine Lilly who won two World Cups and two Olympic gold medals during her 23 years (!) on the U.S. women's soccer team. Her interview with host Peter Sagal is one of the more entertaining -- ranging from her being overly-polite about things in the soccer world and Sagal politely (and humorously) busting her on them, and her competitive strain coming to the front as she's brutally honest on some topics. Perhaps most fun is the discussion of her being both a soccer mom and an assistant coach on her daughters' soccer team. (As Sagal quips, "Assistant??")
