And Grant Wahl did a nice little story on him. Nothing new, but good to see. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/ http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/grant_wahl/08/27/blanco/index.html
Just love this part: For his part, Blanco admits that he enjoys playing the villain for opposing fans. "Yes," he says, flashing a sinister grin. "Back in Mexico, the team I played for is the most hated. I really don't know how it is here, but I believe I'll defend this land to the death." How can you dislike The Aztec King?
I have to admit, i too have hated blanco over the years, i respected his talent watching him play with mexico, but disliked his temper. But now seeing how he is giving all his heart to the fire trying his ass off i have alot of respect for the guy. He was serious when he said he was going to do all in his power to help the fire, which although hes doing still isnt enough lol.
