The world of football [soccer] has suffered a serious blow with the death of Robert Enke. Mr. Enke was a 32 year old goalkeeper for the German National Football [Soccer] Team as well as the world famous Hannover 96.
He has been suffering from an ailment which lead him to withdraw from the German National Team before its game against Azerbaijian. He has played with various teams such as Benfica, FC Barcelona, Borussia Monchengladbach, Carl Zeiss Jena, and Hannover 96.
Mr. Enke was also the recipient of many awards including runner up to the UEFA Europoean Football Championship as well as 2009 Best Bundesliga Goalkeeper. In spite of his success, his disease affected him to the point that he killed himself by jumping in front of a train in Neustatdt am Rubenberge.

La FIFA Debe Expulsar a Maradona [Una Carta Abierta En Las Paginas Ciberneticas de Radio Nederlands]
Quiero felicitar a Radio Nederlands por su articulo sobre Maradona. Hubo cambios en el asunto de Maradona despues de la publicacion del articulo “Maradona Se Replantea Su Futuro” durante el mes de Octubre 2009.
La BBC reporto que la FIFA tiene planificada una reunion durante la fecha de 15 de Noviembre 2009. La FIFA decidira la suerte segun el Articulo 58 del Codigo de Conducta donde Maradona puede ser sancionado con una suspension minima de cinco juegos, una multa de 20,000 francos suizos, y prohibido la entrada al estadio.
Aunque el Sr. Gordona [Jefe de la Asociacion del Futbol Argentino] piensa que la cosa fue “menor”, Maradona dice no estar arrepentido de sus acciones. En conclusion, Maradona y la clase gobernante de futbol argentino niega un problema. No se puede estar en silencio frente a este atropello hacia el deporte.
La Asociacion del Futbol Argentino esta dispuesto a perdonar a Maradona como un padre perdona a su hijo malcriado. Ahora le toca el turno a la FIFA lo que debe ser la funcion del cuerpo de diciplina de la AFA. La FIFA debe sancionar a Maradona por su comportamiento a los demas que es una violacion del Articulo 58 de su Codigo de Conducta. Maradona no puede seguir con el relajo, sus burlas, y su falta de respeto hacia los demas en el deporte.
Si yo fuera la FIFA, castigaria a Maradona con un retiro permanente del futbol con la excepcion de escribir sus memorias.

FIFA Should Ban Maradona
FIFA has decided to launch an disciplinary hearing against Diego Armando Maradona for his abusive outbursts filled with expletives on live television. FIFA will hold the meeting on the 15th of November to decide his fate.
FIFA will base its investigation under Article 58 of its disciplinary code which could suspend Maradona for “at least five matches, a stadium ban, and 20,000 Swiss Francs”.
Julio Grondona who is the head of the Argentine Football Association has accused Maradona’s opponents and FIFA of blowing things out of proportion. Mr. Grondona has promised that Maradona will not repeat the scene again.
Maradona has commented during an interview with one of the radio stations in Argentina that he has nothing to apologize for. It appears that Maradona as well as Grondona is in denial of the problem which is Maradona.
Maradona has done nothing more than to damage the Argentine National Football [Soccer] Team with his behavior. If another manager or player were to behave in the same fashion as Maradona, he or she would have been banned under the statutes of Article 58 of the FIFA Code of Conduct.
While Maradona may receive credit and glory for his part in the history of football [soccer], it should not be denied that his personal life including the drug laden ones as well as his arrogance has done more damage to his legacy, the legacy of football [soccer], and to his team.
It also appears that Argentina is willing to forgive him but that does not resolve the problem. In fact, the Maradona problem has been festering for a long time. His insults toward Pele and Messi are not practical jokes. It is an attitude that is based on Maradona trying to play God.
If reincarnation were to exist, we can say that Maradona was the reincarnation of Henry VIII, Louis XIV, or even other megalomaniacs such as Stalin. It is not intended for political purposes. The comparison is based on personalities. The following comments written by the underwriter was not based on envy or rivalry.
The underwriter was once a supporter of Maradona and used to hang his posters. What happened was that the use of drugs plus his insulting remarks to every living thing is unbecoming of a person who is a sports figure.
It is hoped that the disciplinary committee of FIFA decides to punish Maradona for his actions and insults. It is also hoped that the Argentine Football [Soccer] Association comes to its senses and expels Maradona as a coach since he refuses to resign.
If the underwriter was a member of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee, he would ban Maradona for life and send him off on his way to write his autobiography.

MCL se solidariza con Yoani Sánchez , Darsi Ferrer y las demas víctimas de la represión
Denunciamos la detención de Yoani Sánchez , asi como la condena a Darsi Ferrer y Agustin Cervantes.
Como parte de una ofensiva de intolerancia, en la Habana y tambien en otras provincias y poblados están deteniendo a ciudadanos que expresan sus deseos de libertad.
Muchos de ellos estan siendo citados , amenazados o detenidos por firmar el Proyecto Varela, pero la opinion publica no siempre se entera pues ellos no tienen acceso a internet.
El MCL quiere reiterar su solidaridad con todos los que son reprimidos por expresar pacificamente sus ideas.

Open Letter to FIFA On Why USA Deserves To Host the 2018/2022 World Cup
I have been a supporter of soccer since the age of 11 after my return from Europe. Since soccer was not popular in North America, I started to listen to the shortwave radio stations such as the BBC in order to listen to many games.
When I lived in Venezuela during the late 1970’s and Early 1980’s, I listened to the 1978 World Cup on my shortwave radio. Every place that I lived such as the Dominican Republic and Europe, I listened to each World Cup.
I will also never forger listening to Deutsche Welle for the Bundesliga or Radio Nacional de Espa~na for the games from La Liga. My favourite teams were Brazil, Germany, and Spain.
When the World Cup first came to the USA in 1994, I was overjoyed and watched as the USA started to learn about soccer. It was also great to find out that the MLS and other leagues were formed.
There was a journalist who had asked me about the future of football [soccer] in America, my response was to talk about the schools and various soccer academies.
I even told him the story about a person who drove from Arizona to Washington State and finally to Illinois to see Manchester United.
There are many people in America who love soccer and have supported the team throughout the games. Many cheered as the USA won the CONCACAF and classified for the World Cup.
Who could forget that the stadiums were filled with supporters of the US Soccer Team chanting “USA USA USA”?
It is hoped that FIFA would consider the USA as a host for the 2018/2022 World Cup.
