Portuguese Soccer star Nuno Silvo with his Franco T-shirt.
WHOOPS!…Somebody needs to talk to this boy! None of the “right people” saw this coming! Che Guevara, chico! CHE! CHE! CHE! THAT’S who hip soccer stars wear on t-shirts.. Whatsamatta wit-you!
The face a a TRUE rebel! Nobody has enraged the (genuine) establishment like Nuno Silva. According to Spain’s ABC the establishment is up in arms over Silvo’s gesture and want him silenced! Penalized! Sanctioned!'(naturally nobody is referring to Silvo’s “freedom of expression” or the lust by the “uptight establishment” to “censor” him.
Alas, pressure from “the establishment” from “the man” finally ended up cowering Silva into apologizing, claiming an apolitical personality and ignorance of recent of Spanish history.
(“Oye, Nuno! Get with the program, chico! Much better for your career!”) advises Diego MaradonaLest we forget the Spanish Nationalists led by Franco were known in Western liberal circles as “rebels” as “insurgents.” They rebelled against the Spanish Government/establishment of the day….Well? In-your-face social rebellion anyone? GENUINE political and social iconoclasm anyone?
Nobody–but NOBODY!–so rebelled against the leftist pieties of his age and so rattled the politically-correct literary, social and political establishment of his time like Francisco Franco.

Maradona’s aged pretty badly, and he’s not that old. He always, however, looked like a very dim bulb. Talk about a one-trick pony.
Silvo may not be especially bright, but not being a fashion victim puts him way ahead of any number of celebrities. As for Maradona, there’s no fool like a washed-up fool.
