Yes, you´re right. But, I also have that feelings for Ayrton Senna (" the Pelé of F1") :)
>He also helped soccer in the United States a great deal. Before Pele, we could not spell soccer in the United States! We are learning though. :)

probably USA will give trouble for the "traditional" teams on the next few years.
Anyway, it´ll always be hard for you in order to spell some Brazilian players: "Ronaldinho Gaúcho", "Dida", "Ricardinho", "Denilson", "Juninho"... I can´t imagine how do you speak those names. :)
I remember on 94' world cup in USA, when a TV comentarist said that a American comentarist had written Brazilian names in a "English way"... then "Aldair", became something like "All their". That´s kind of funny. ;)
