What many have long suspected, Spanish sport stars are high as kites!
I remember there was some incident with a French Radio Station or TV Channel - something like that - anyway they joked about Rafa Nadal using drugs which got him and the Spanish government all upset. I think he was maybe planning to sue.
Now, Andrea Pirlo is blasting Deportivo La Coruna over the same issue. There 4-0 win in Galicia (2004) to overcome Milan's 4-1 first leg was, for him, a clearcut case of 11 men who were doped up against 11 men who weren't. He admits that they were not prepared to face any sort of competition, but the way Deportivo played that night left him with the believe that they were drugs cheats.
It was all revealed in his recent biography along with this quote:
“Take someone like Antonio Cassano. He says he’s slept with 700 women in his time, but he doesn’t get picked for Italy any more. Deep down, can he really be happy? I certainly wouldn’t be.
Proper professional...
