Cheating bastard.
/And before folks who really belong at Reee get salty, it's a sign of begrudging respect, that the man himself would expect, and even in the afterlife would be having the last laugh about it.

Many years ago, an elementary school teacher working at a school in a town near Naples asked for permission to publish some (partially edited) essays made by his students, because those essays were a very precious document on the cultural and grammatical level of the pupils of Southern Italy (and for that very reason, they were also hilarious).
The book had great success, and it even got two “sequels”. In the second book in the trilogy, this gem could be found:
Se Maradona non si drogava
e non diceva figli di puttana ai Mondiali,
se non metteva le corna alla moglie
e si allenava tutti i giorni
poteva diventare santo.
Translated:
If Maradona didn’t do drugs,
if he didn’t say “sons of a bitch” at the World Cup,
if he didn’t cheat on his wife
and if he trained every day,
he could’ve become a saint.
This was probably written in 1991 (the “sons of a bitch” part references Maradona clearly saying that on camera when Italian supporters booed him before the Argentina-Italy 1990 FIFA World Cup semifinal, barely a month after he won his second Serie A title with Napoli). Diego was a literal god for the city of Naples, and many kids at the time were named after him.
