* DistractedByTheSexy: A sports version. As they walk into the stadium, Beard and Ted are talking about the origins of soccer, only for Ted to disappear because he spotted the pitch. They look on it from the stands for a minute, then go down to run their fingers through the grass.
* DamnedByFaintPraise: Pretty much all Nate can muster when asked to describe [[TheDiva Jamie.]] Ted and Beard read between the lines.
-->'''Ted:''' Nate, what's he like?
-->'''Nate:''' Who, Jamie? Yeah, he's great. ''({{beat}})'' You know, at football.



*** At Ted's surprise press conference, Rebecca steps in to defend him... by attacking the team at every level.

-->'''Trent:''' I just wanna make sure I have this right. You're an American who's never set foot in England, whose athletic success has only come at the amateur level--a second-tier one at that--and is now being charged with the leadership of a Premier League football club, despite clearly possessing very little knowledge of the game.
