🚨🚨🎙️| Wayne Rooney: “I remember Fergie's team talk before playing AC Milan. He literally said to Park: 'Your job today is not about touching the ball, it's not about making passes, your job is Pirlo. That's all: Pirlo."
“At the time Andrea Pirlo was averaging 110 passes per game, something stupid like that, and out of those, about 60-70 were forward passes, passes that could hurt you.
“He had this trick: when the ball came to him from the full-back, he would play it first time over your centre-back's head, for Andriy Shevchenko or Kaka to run through. Pirlo was the best I've seen at that pass.
“So Fergie said to Park: ‘He cannot be allowed that pass. You cannot be one yard or one second late.’
“And I think Pirlo barely had 40 passes in that game, and 95 per cent were backwards because Park was so unbelievable at carrying out his orders. The rest of us appreciated that, physically and mentally, what Park managed to do that night was so difficult.”
🗣️ Andrea Pirlo on that fateful night: “At Milan, he [Ferguson] unleashed Park Ji-sung to shadow me. He rushed about at the speed of an electron. He'd fling himself at me, his hands all over my back, trying to intimidate me.
“He'd look at the ball and not know what it was for. They'd programmed him to stop me. His devotion to the task was almost touching. Even though he was a famous player, he consented to being used as a guard dog.”
Tengo el corazón lleno con lo que pasó ayer. Felicidades a Bad Bunny por este hito tan grande y a todos los premiados. Pero sobre todo, GRACIAS por hacer que la música sea el altavoz de lo bueno, de lo bonito, de lo real, de lo humano, de LA VERDAD.
Cuando el escenario más visto del mundo se llena de identidad, idioma y símbolos, el mensaje trasciende el entretenimiento.
El show de Bad Bunny abrió una conversación pacífica sobre el momento que vive Estados Unidos.

Canada peacefully coexisted with the US for a long time. We had a normal trading relationship—they bought our stuff, we bought their oil at a great discount. It functioned as an unofficial 51st state with its own culture, quirkiness, a touch of socialism, and infinite politeness. Things were great.
Then Trump decided to make America great again and started treating allies and adversaries alike. For reasons that still escape any thinking person, he went nuclear on Canada. Canada's dependence and friendly coexistence with the US suddenly proved to be a liability.
So it decided to diversify away from its former friend and started seeing other people. The US is now behaving like an abusive ex-boyfriend who beat his girlfriend; the girlfriend started seeing other people, and now he's threatening her with further beatings if she doesn't stop.
We are - through the hands of our president - becoming pathetic.
Tonight is another prime example of why Lamar Jackson isn’t an elite nfl quarterback, if he doesn’t rely on his legs regularly. His strength is being an elite athlete which when used properly makes his arm much more serviceable in games than it actually is

Omar Bravo fue uno de mis ídolos más grandes de infancia.
Lo admiraba por su entrega, por su forma de presionar, por esa intensidad que parecía no acabarse nunca. No era solo un jugador, era una actitud. Copié sus gestos, sus rutinas, hasta su manera de mirar el campo. Era un reflejo de lo que uno aspiraba a ser: constante, disciplinado, con carácter.
Por eso lo de ahora duele distinto.
No es solo una decepción, es una herida en la memoria.
Porque uno crece creyendo que los ídolos representan algo más grande que ellos mismos. Que simbolizan valores, esfuerzo, mérito… y un día descubres que también son humanos, y a veces, humanos de los peores.
No siento odio, ni deseo de verlo destruido.
Pero sí una tristeza profunda. Porque cuando alguien que admiraste cae tan bajo, no solo se cae él: se desmorona una parte de tu historia, esa que te hacía creer que ser bueno y disciplinado alcanzaba para mantenerse limpio.
Con los años entiendes que ningún ídolo es tan perfecto como lo pintabas, ni tan intocable como quisieras.
Y que la verdadera madurez no llega cuando dejas de admirar… sino cuando aprendes a mirar a tus ídolos con compasión y decepción al mismo tiempo.
