Mexico coach Miguel Herrera will be hoping that the absence of certain extracurricular activities during the World Cup will not have the same effect on his players as they did on Homer Simpson.

Herrera announced that he's banning members of El Tri from consuming alcohol or partaking in any sexual activities.

"If a player cannot endure a month or 20 days without having intercourse, then you are not prepared to be a professional," Herrera told Mexican newspaper Reforma (via Yahoo!). "Let's play a World Cup, we're not going to a party."

It's a stark contrast from Brazilian coach Luiz Felipe Scolari's thoughts, who is allowing his players to have sex, so long as it's in a nonacrobatic manner.
