Ronaldinho Too Busy Scoring On Girlfriend, PS2 To Score For Brazil
from the gooooooooooool!!! dept
Was it lack of conditioning, sloppy play or perhaps hubris that caused Brazil to lose to the French in the quarter-finals of this year's World Cup? Well, the blame game has started, and now apparently sex and videogames are partly to blame as well. Star midfielder Ronaldinho reportedly snuck out of his hotel room to have late night romps with his girlfriend, model Alexandra Paressant, after which he would collapse and play the videogame FIFA 2006 until the wee hours of the morning. Paressant refuses to accept any blame. However, since we've seen before that video games help prepare athletes mentally for games, maybe it was her fault after all. Sportscolumn conspires that she is French, so maybe she was just being patriotic.

So were blaming video games on violence and why soccer superstarts lose games? Whats next?

Of course video games are to blame, they are the cause of all evil as well. Children shoot other children solely because video games tells them it is ok

school is cool!
wow jdizzle, your comment makes very little sense. Maybe cutting out the games out and picking up and english book is what should be next for you.

I guess i should pick up an english book as well. Take the first "out" out and that's what I meant to say.

Well, I blame video games for my lack of sleep, exercise, and sex. I think I have grounds for a lawsuit....

Re:
if ronaldinho has no control over his temptations (heh) and time ; and behaves like a spoilt kid prior to a match, how'd he expect to have control over his game. well-done alexandra (or whatever her name is)

I think there is too Much hype about Brazil, they are good but everyone loses even if they are the Fav. to win

Brazil are a damn good squad, however, they are not infallible...as we have all witnessed in the last and previous tournaments. I bet Ronaldinho wasn't the only star fucking the nights away during the World Cup...[hot French model not necessary].

Re:
The next thing to come is blaming Videogames on kids getting into cars, getting drunk and causing an accident! Cause they saw it on some videogame.
But blaming VIdeogames on some dumbass fucking up is pretty stupid. Blame HIM. It's HIS fault he stayed up THAT late just to play them. Where is the Coach in this? He should have been keeping an eye on his players.

Who could blame him?
She is totally gorgeous. Who can blame him? If you do, then obviously you are a fag. a BIG one.

Re: Who could blame him?
Yeah, on the money. If you had a face like a horse like Ronaldinho does, you´d also be taking every opportunity to mount a model.

missed it
Bah, you all missed the positive spin that could have been put on the story.
He wasn't playing video games. Video games are games like astroids and pac-man. He was using a virtual simulator to test strategy against his opponents. I maen come on.. if he were playing NCAA football I can see the story but he was playing FIFA soccer. For the love of God, give hime some credit for "training" into the wee hours of the night after collapsing from time spent with with the french tart.

Dennis Has too Much Time On HIs Hands
This actually comes from Dennis of the "I have too much time on my frickin' hands" dept. Come on people, get a life. If Ronaldinho wants to score and then score and it keeps him from scoring, who really cares?

Ronaldinho
I would check to see what the rest of the Brazil squad was doing at night... it seemed like Ronaldinho was the only one who showed up to play. Did anyone else actually watch him play? he's amazing... he just didnt have any team support. Besides... if the games were being played 'live' here in the states, and they didnt start until 2 or 3pm, that would mean that they didnt play until 9 or 10pm in germany, right? they were already up late.

When men were men
I remember when men were men and could have a late night voyage with the girlfriend, play a few hours of video games, then kick butt in a soccer match. Ok now maybe the world cup quarterfinal is slightly pushing it and i think weve all agreed that what he did was stupid but oh well, thats life. Sometimes star athletes think that they are bigger than the game (think Roethlisberger) and they do stupid stuff.

why all dis snashing about Ronaldinho >>>>????
Ronaldinho is my hero and take tone ......He's a human being for God's sake with feelings. What can you say about Beckam's story. Am expecting more ladies to go after Ronaldinho coz he's a STAR and every woman's choice, never mind his bulked tooth. Let'z mind our biznes and forgoet about Ronaldinho's personal life so that the flavour of football will continue to sweeten our mind. PEACE >>>>

Ronaldinho! remember, do not embarrass your mother by airing your dirty laundry out so that everyone can see it and also remember to treat people the way you would want them to treat you or your mother.
