Reposted from the lounge, where it sank without a trace...

God, I hated him for his 1986 "hand of God" goal against England. I despised him then. But on my knees....

Admittedly I haven't watched the video, but click on anything involving Maradona that isn't a drug bust or a funeral? No sir.

If I were walking down the street and saw him laying in the gutter on fire, it would pose a most powerful ethical question.

I remember wanting to plant my fist in his face and wipe that oily smile off it when he said that about "The Hand of God".

What was I thinking in posting this? It must've been the drink.
