I don't see how the "business" or the "violence" are aspects that should be addressed by AFA. Also, do those people even exist?
They seem to be administered and tackled by other modern football associations. The AFA is riddled with incompetents from top to bottom.
Honestly I don't see any football association being a good example of anything, they're all bad in a way or another.
Diego iba en su camioneta con Vero y se chocaron con un colectivo. Están golpeados, pero bien. Se perdieron de ver el Argentina-Costa Rica, eso sí. http://www.clarin.com/deportes/Maradona-choco-colectivo-observacion-hospital_0_515348704.html
Peter Reid and Maradona :lol: Article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2074769/Peter-Reid-Maradona-make-Hand-God.html It's taken 25 years but Reid and Maradona finally make up over 'Hand of God' Nice video [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3YKbJbjv3U&feature=player_embedded#"]Diego Maradona and Peter Reid after 25 years from the World Cup 1986 - YouTube[/ame]!
Diego in '86. This is the very first tournament I can remember being seven at the time with the Aztec Gold theme that ITV used and maybe robledo remembers too and Leon. And where I became an Argentina fan. I still vividly remember that solo run and goal in the quarterfinal like it was yesterday.

The English media will never get over it Players like Rooney and Ferdinand openly admitted that Diego are their fav players, Ferdinand even went as far as saying he got all his video and poster lol
You gotta love Diego. For all the crap he talks, I have to admit he is witty and sometimes he gets it right. Maradona: "si tengo que pertenecer a la familia de la FIFA... prefiero ser huérfano".
Here's one more (taken from Twitter): Maradona: s/Pele "sos un muñequito de torta, estás para las premiaciones y no trabajas hace 30 años" And then there's this: Maradona "Se que algún día voy a dirigir a Boca .. cuando se termine el amor por Falcioni y se vayan algunos dirigentes " Gotta wonder who he means by the "vayan algunos dirigentes". What are the odds he's talking about Riquelme?
Hey Cosmos, were you at this game? [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcTwGqMp2yM&feature=relmfu"]1979 Maradona vs New York Cosmos - YouTube[/ame]
Diego fired from his spot in the UAE(or was it Qatar?) Looks like they have more of a brain than the AFA(But nobody is surprised by that).
i think if maradona had ariel garce on on his UAE team like he did for the 2010 World Cup, things would have been different
For our friends in the US(Not sure about rest of the world), there will be a documentary on Tuesday about Diego's 1986 on ESPN's wonderful 30 for 30 series. It will be at 7PM EST, 4 on the West. http://espn.go.com/30for30/film?page=maradona86
The greatest individual performance in team sports history. A writer described it as "The sublime made simple and vice-versa".
There's a reason why Messi will never look as dominant , Maradona will ride 1000 tackles and still running while Messi today often stop when someone touching his shirt.
