Sorry to hear that. But you do realize that in America soccer legend is kind of like tallest dwarf.

I know how you guys love that soccer, it really isn't a bad sport (not my cup of tea, but I love hockey and the similarities are obvious). I have been a longtime defender of sports figures as being valuable memeber of society even when that view gets UN PC. Again, bummer. 76 is a little young for me too.

But still... Here's to you Bobby. I'm going to have a Capri Sun and an orange slice in your honor.

Shame on you Fassa.

I edited your thread.

A true football legend died today, not soccer. Football!

No need to cater to the yanks with all this soccer talk.


See the difference?
