It will def be Pele maybe if it was in Sao Paulo where Jofre was a mayor in the past if im not mistaken he would have a better chance there but even then it would be Pele hes the greatest ever brazilian sports icon.
Would be awesome ! Not going to happen though since he isn´t too popular anymore, sadly.... I think Pelé will be the choice, yes........but Pelé is not exactly a hero tbh, sounds strange I guess, but because he made some mistakes politically in sports.. and also because of his personal life, he really wasn´t an example (didn´t recognize one of his daughters, etc)...he is not loved by the people as some others. The greatest ever brazilian sports icon is Senna, no doubt, at least the bz people loved Ayrton more than anyone.... Jofre never was a Mayor btw, he was an assemblyman of São Paulo...
That actually doesnt suprise me at all, one of my Brazilian friends absolutely loves Senna, he use say the same thing
Nah, Senna is just in another world in terms of worship, not even close....no football player comes close, and this is crazy when we think about it, because formula 1 is not as popular as football, no comparison at all And this is not because of his tragic death.....no..he was loved before that ! So you can imagine how sad May 1st 1994 was. I was just a kid, but that is one of my first memories ever....the whole country stopped that sunday, it was crazy man....
Garrincha with the gammy leg!!! :happy Anyway, it will be Pele. But I'd love it if it was Eder Jofre. Sadly, chain smoking Socrates is no longer with us, otherwise I'd have picked him
:smoke Saw him play for Garforth against Tadcaster back in 2004. Surreal as **** but absolutely brilliant. Him and Lee Sharpe playing for the same team :rasta
