Gawd, poor old MaryDona, if he didn't make such a joke of himself, I'd feel sorry for him.

Nobody denies Maradona has made plenty of foolish decisions off the field and has endangered his life but he isn't the first and won't be the last great soccer player, or athlete, to have done such things.

But on the field he was a pure genius and the greatest player I have ever seen. One of the things which makes Maradona so popular was that he had weaknesses off the field. To the people that made him seem more human as we all have our own foibles. Ever great hero needs to have a tragic side to him.
