I didn't notice this Totti trade before 
My opinion is that Totti is a very good player, he do very good things 4 Roma, he did very good in Euro 2000 but unfortunatly 4 him (and 4 us :fero he failed his lifetime oportunity: last WC... It was not his fault (all team suked) but WC is the place where to became a soccer legends, and this was "his" WC cause he had the "perfect age" (26) and he was Italy most important player... in 4 years it will be Cassano (or who 4 him turn)... so he will remain just a "roman legend" but he will never be in the 
off all the Italians (like Baggio) and he will never been considered in any "best ever" or "dream team" outside from his country...
As a player I can't say too many things vs him... but outside the field he's so funny :LOL: ... I just tell you that this year thay gave the "football oscars" doing a funny TV schow with all comics actors&co and thay made also some "goliardic oscars" to make a joke to all the players... and Totti won the "beautiful mind" oscar... :LOL: He cant' even talk :LOL:
Maybe ther's too many peaple speaking bad about the way he talks, the way he dress, about his girlfriends, ecc... his job is to play football and he does it well... but he's so funny, totaly nobrained, so is difficolt not to laught at him :LOL:

In this case his name fitted perfectly... cause he's the example of a player loved all around Italy, indipendely of the jersey he's wearing while Totti is Rome's king but Italians not Roma fans do not give a dam abot him...
P.S.: I saw in your profile that Baggio is (or was and maybe you just forgot to delate his name) one your favorite players...
Favorite player(s): alessandro del piero,Zz,Baggio, Maradona all time best, Raul,and a lot of others
How it comes that you have something to say every single time that you read his name?

Only because you mention it all the time and you say the same thing all the time
Yes we all know by now that he was voted the 4th best player on the internet and he was voted into a dream team
I like the guy but I hate reading the same things about the same person in every thread i go to by the same person

You're saying always the same things also I just mentioned him cause he's the only case of Italian player like this....
If you want I will change it in:
"Totti is good but he will never be 4 us Italians like Maradona 4 the Argentinian cause he is considered just from Roma fans not from the whole country"
Do you prefer it like this? I guess is the same... so I don't understand why you had to blame me
from an article talking about the Roma-Lazio rivalry(full article at the history forum)...................
"................On the other hand, cliches can hurt Roma, too, and Totti in particular. For no specific reason, the brilliant Roma forward has now replaced the Carabinieri, one of Italy's police forces, as the butt of everybody's jokes centered on his - as it was with the Carabinieri's - perceived dumbness.
You'll receive Totti jokes through email every day, if you have a large enough address book, and now even people who know nothing about football will have and share their favourite ones.
The Roman accent and dialect have long been 'choice one' for comedies and low budget movies. Italy's most talented and famous comedy actor of all time, Alberto Sordi, made his name by frequently using his native dialect.
This, however, has sometimes translated into the perception that everyone who speaks like that and becomes a public persona is fair game for criticisms and snipes. Totti may be in the 'David Beckham category' as far the number of books he's read (not written: Beckham leads by a mile), but he's not dumber than any other footballer.
This national, underground campaign against him has become so disturbing that some people wonder what's next. It has affected Roma fans, obviously, but sometimes not in the manner one might have expected.
One of them, a comedian named Massimo Giuliani, became something of a television personality by mocking Totti and his speech pattern in a national television show.
The backlash has been huge: Roma fans have risen as one in defence of their captain and icon, and Mr Giuliani - again, a longtime Roma fan and season ticket holder himself long before it became fashionable for artists and actors to associate themselves to football - has been forced to stay away from the Stadio Olimpico as persona non grata
A popular Roma website has been promoting a collection of banners stating that Giuliani 'has been forced to step on the love of his life in order to make a living'.
As everyone else on this planet, Totti can become the target of comedians and impersonators. But when a simple characterization becomes a national obsession and turns a decent person and a star player into a national joke and a cliche for ignorant footballer that, frankly, is taking things too far."
