Who would have thought that Diego Maradona would be among the 2 best dressed coaches at the World Cup? Granted, Maradona looks like a 6 year old who had his mom dress him, but the suit is a good look - much better than the Bob Bradley track suit.
As I typed this Germany scored an early goal, and coach Joachim Loew danced around in his Sprockets gear, but the futbol Buffet still likes an Argentina comeback.
Since it's too late to preview a game that has already started, the futbol Buffet would like to share some of its favorite Diego Maradona quotes of the World Cup (as compiled by the London Telegraph). Go Albicelestes!!
Diego Maradona on his rival to the 'world's best ever player' award, Pele...
"Pele should go back to the museum."
Diego Maradona on the entire nation of France and its greatest football star...
"We all know what the French are like and Platini as a Frenchman thinks he knows it all."
Diego Maradona on fatherhood...
"My legitimate kids are Dalma and Giannina. The rest are a product of my money and mistakes."
Diego Maradona on sportsmanship...
"I was waiting for my teammates to embrace me and no one came, ... I told them, 'Come hug me or the referee isn't going to allow it.'"
Diego Maradona on smashing the car of a photographer...
"I did it with the hand of reason."
Diego Maradona on being voted Fifa's joint Player of the Century...
"The people voted for me. Now they want me to share the prize with Pele. I'm not going to share the prize with anybody."
Diego Maradona on World Cup 1998, and clearly not anticipating this one...
"The players have all got square feet. They are like Robocops, they have more need of lubricant than massage. I don't believe the tournament could be worse."
Diego Maradona on his political affiliation...
"I believe in [Venezuelen President Hugo] Chávez, I am Chavista. Everything Fidel [Castro] does, everything Chávez does, for me is the best."
Diego Maradona on his team's work ethic...
"I have 23 wildcats prepared to leave their skins on the pitch."
Diego Maradona on American politics...
"I think Bush is a murderer. I'm going to head the march against him stepping foot on Argentine soil."
Diego Maradona on proving the doubters wrong...
"To those who did not believe: now suck my d**k - I'm sorry ladies for my words - and keep on sucking it. I am either white or black. I will never be grey in my life. You treated me as you did. Now keep on sucking d**ks. I am grateful to my players and to the Argentinian people. I thank no one but them. The rest, keep on sucking d**ks."
