Vikings punter Chris Kluwe explained football and his support for gay marriage Tuesday night on the Colbert report.

"If you're into a frank discussion of kicking things," host Stephen Colbert told his audience, "don't touch that dial."

When Colbert mentioned the Vikings' wild-card loss to Green Bay, complete with lutefisk reference, Kluwe explained: "In my defense, I played well. Unfortunately, when I play well, that's usually a sign that the team isn't playing well."

That's all we're telling you, aside from how impressed Upload was with the stocking cap and shower thongs ensemble that Kluwe chose for the show. Watch the rest here:
