MLS coach’s press conference interrupted by reporter’s mom

Major League Soccer isn’t typically a fixture in the Haboob Blog unless something major or something funny happens.

What happened at New England Revolution head coach Jay Heaps’ press conference certainly falls into the latter category.

Given the advent of the iPhone and it’s duel ability to take calls and record audio, reporters will often use it at press conferences/player interviews. The downside, though, is that they can’t turn the phone part off when a call comes through.

Such was the case this weekend, except the call that interrupted Heaps’ media session came from none other than the mother of Boston.com reporter Julian Cardillo.

Heaps obviously had to answer it, and well, hilarity ensued.
