You know what?
It's months that I'm bodered by somebody saying that the simble of my country is just crap and bla bla bla... and at the end he just convinced me that is the truth... :D

Without joking... I have so mutch fun with Denco and his "the fact is that...", "you must realize that ....", "that's all manipulated, the truth is...." If it pissed me off I stopped to replay him way ago.

And I'm also curios to realize how can somebody hate so mutch a guy who is considered by most of the peaple (In Italy nearly all) one of the simbles of sport...

I guess in England you don't have any sportman who becomed so important 4 your country like it happened with Roby in Italy? Tell me if I'm wrong...

Who? I'm just curios...
It doesn't need to be a soccer player, just a sportman who is supported by everybody from kids to granma, and have becommed a simble of the country also outside sport...
We don't have a lot, of soccer is just Baggio cause the rests are or were just supported by the fans or their club while he's a simble indipendently of the jersey he's wearing.
Than of the other sports some skier like A.Tomba, G.Thoni, D.Compagnoni than Valentino Rossi of motorbike and Coppi of cyclism (also Pantani was like this, but with the doping staff he loosed a lot of support) but their sports are not so popolar like soccer that's why they came after.
And it also results that Roby is the most famos person of Italy abroad... it will not ever happen in England, I guess that a sportman will be the most famos person, right? You have the queen! But actually in places like Brazil, Argentina is kinda the same... sportsman are more important than politics...

P.S.: Well it's out of topic, but anycase...

well, she's better than England's number one! :howler::D

yeah, he has to be! He's probably the most famous current top player in the world, though I may be wrong, and since footballers are amongst the most famous of people I'd have to say he is pretty dran famous!

lucky git!

probably becks is the general favourite. Personally, my favourite England player is Joe Cole, but thats just me!

Oh yes... definitly... but I tought many English couldn't stant him.
To be onest, I prefer RB like a simble of my country, I like Becks as a soccer player but I don't have a lot of sympaty 4 him...
Also if it's true that it was better to have somebody like Nelson Mandela as a simble I have to recon that it is better now that that you hear peaple saying: Italy? Oh yeah Roberto Baggio! Than before when many of the peaple identified us with mafia or pizza :D The second most famos person results to be Pavarotti... also if he's grat I also prefer that peaple identify us with Roby... if not they will think that all the Italians are fat and ugly :D
