Sex, the blue oyster and Viagra salesmen

Crikey. You just look away for one minute and Argentina's World Cup plans have gone all, well, amorous. On the one hand (that's the euphemisms starting already), we have Team Argentina medical man Doctor Donato Villami letting us in on the first wave of sordidness.

Speaking via the wireless on Radio Del Plata, Dr Villami came clean (and again) on the free love available to Diego's 23; "The players will be able to have sex during the World Cup in South Africa" the good doctor began, raising this correspondents concerns regarding any over-exuberant goal scoring celebrations, "but with regular partners and without champagne or other drinks, and always under the watching eye of Maradona".

Ok, I added that last bit in myself. The good doctor went on;"Sex is part of everybody's social life and it's not a problem in itself. Problems arise with the excesses: all the extras, a non-regular partner or in hours reserved for rest.",

Dr Villami. Relaxed

So in a nutshell (sack), Diego's young boys can quite happily go at their good ladies (and we'll assume that it's good ladies, although IBWM has always felt that Juan Sebastien Veron has a touch of the 'blue oyster' about him) hammer and tongs, provided it's not in the immediate vicinity of the game. Not sure how Mr Aguero will view this, bearing in mind he is currently 'wooing' Diego's daughter.

Juan Veron. Glenn on Sundays

In another story, that IBWM would like to think is totally unconnected but makes no promises about, El Diego alerted us to his own choice of celebration should Argentina end their 24 year wait for the trophy; "If we win the World Cup, I'll get naked and run around the city's Obelisk.", he said referring to one of Buenos Aires' most famous phallic landmarks. Terrifying. Diego naked, that is. In my neck of the woods that would be the equivalent of showing one's arse in Fenwicks window. Also scary.

Quite where all this unpleasantness stems from is unclear, however IBWM understands that Brazilian footballing legend and Viagra salesman Pelé was spotted talking to Maradona earlier this week...........

Hmmmmm...........

Comments welcome.
