The Emperor of Trivia

Ronaldo, The New Emperor It is the news in Portugal, the footballer Ronaldo has won a golden football and the country rejoices, after Eusebio died a new emperor is needed, a hero people can look up to, one who can continue the people’s culture.... Football! This, perhaps, is modernity, technology that and instant messages is coming down to a game of football and a TV that has commentators who cannot stop talking about it.
