I'm kind of deriving a twisted sense of pleasure out of watching Maradonna run Argentina into the ground. The man has always been somewhat of an a$$hat and other than being Argentina's greatest player, I never got what qualified him to run a national team. Just as Michael Jordan and Ted Williams proved, being a great player does not qualify you as a great coach and leader.
