even if t was democratic,we would end up with menezes,most people,me included,wanted him if Muricy didnt accept the job.


If it was democratic...then what the people want can be truly heard......that type of passion will count for something.

But I also see your point.......I mean the Brazillian public's treatment of Zagallo stands out for me as the evidence behind your claim

Socrates oddly enough was something like a philosopher... Dude was very very smart. Gotta be to be a successful doctor, which he was. He was also politically involved with Corinthians back in the day in Brazil.

He was much more than futebol player.

The democrácia corinthiana was amazing, especially because of the time when it happened. He also took part in the Diretas Já movement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diretas_J%C3%A1

RIP to not only a brilliant and accomplished man, but also to someone who knew how to have a good time! (Which may have done him in, but a great person nonetheless).
