lmaoooooooooooooo at pele...why need 4 an agent in that age?

To remind him to take his pills.
They wanted him to play against barcelona..............brazilians have a unique sense of humor I guess. He's 70 years old.

he probably has a more exciting life than you?

His brand still have a very high value and he does alot of commercials. Someone need to handle all the negotiating.

Nothing weird about it at all...

Word.

P.S. Beatles are the best.

He's still a celebrity, and basically each and every celebrity has a) an agent and b) a publicist, unless the agent IS the puclicist, or employs the publicist.

I don't understand the agent's declarations about Pelé not being involved in the CWC though. I mean, he won't be playing, but on the Brazilian websites it sounds like he's still going there just as a representative, an image.

He got his own brand of football boots not too long out, he is still active.

Pavel Nedved has an agent too. It is not the type of agent who negotiates deals with clubs, it is more for sponsorships, press conferences, etc. Not that funny.

“At first I was like…”

“…then I was like…”





“No.”

Pele is a crazy, greedy weirdo.

Cosmos are nothing but smoke and mirrors, a joke.

Him and Cantona are the perfect match for a fake, non-existent football club. Because they can't play anymore, they're nothing by hype and BS machines, perfect for the Cosmos.

to manage his viagra commercials ?
seriosly now, Pele makes millions from commercials every year, and of course when u have millions u need an agent

he's bad with his money and has a history of taking bad advice and having thieving idiots around him. he has to whore himself out til he dies because he managed his finances so poorly.

Whore himself out ? Every football fan would donate if he really needed it. You think he has to whore himself out ? He is Pele for God's sake, he can go to Nike and let them make another shoe called the "Nike Pele" and make more than Messi and Ronaldo combined.

It seems you haven't followed Pele's life off the pitch.

I'm not making this up...

Oh.. and going and making a shoe with Nike is what "whoring yourself out" is. He's nothing but a walking endorsement at this point. The Cosmos are not a football team, he's a puppet for owners of a fake football club.

too lazy to look it all up for you, but here's a small sampling

news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/991464.stm

soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=386082&cc=5901

in his own autobiography - books.google.com/books?id=7PdWkxoZ0l0C&pg=PA197&lpg=PA197&dq=pele+bankrupt&source=bl&ots=Om3Frr9yAH&sig=60ygBHLTxUptICgxuraJ1HjN2yI&hl=en&ei=xFk8TumsEeXZ0QHqyv3lAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CCoQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=bankrupt&f=false

start reading at page 311 for some examples of things he talks about himself.

its a known thing though, that he has had bad advisors and been taken advantage of. he spends lots of time in nyc with his old cosmos buddies, I know one who ones a soccer shop here... seems like he spends most of his time mooching of people or whoring himself out.
