What could you possibly not like about this guy? Hells yeah. I like this even better than his "That reporter shouldn't have been standing where I could run him over" statement.

I like him just fine, but I could see where his act could run thin real quick. Kind of reminds me of Rex Ryan. The jokes are funny as long as you're winning, but once it ends, watch out.

They've got as legitimate shot as any other top team. I'm pulling for them.

It wouldn't be pretty.

Argentina have an abundance of class but with Maradona in charge they have no chance of winning the World Cup. The Argentinian Football Association bowed to public pressure when they appointed him as coach even though he has no real management experience at club level let alone international level.

Thank goodness he had the surgery and isnt that big anymore. Still, it wouldnt be pretty.

Hadders is exactly right. Maradona is nowhere near the caliber of the majority of his NT colleagues. His squad selection is downright puzzling at times, but he has the best set of forwards in the tournament with Higuain, Messi, Aguero, Milito, etc. The list goes on.

They'd have a shot to win if he became head cheerleader and just let the team run itself.

My favorite Maradona commercial:

Maradona appears with Ronaldo and Kaká singing the Brazilian national anthem before a match. He then wakes up, in his Argentine jersey, in a cold sweat, saying, "Oh, crap, what a nightmare. I've been drinking way too much Antarctica guaraná [a popular Brazilian soft drink]."

Crazy manager, will be the star of the tournament even though he isn't playing(i think he'll walk out on team during the tourney) but what a gifted player he was.

Mexico 86
