I'm not trying to be weird, didn't even know he was still alive. Ofc he is probably regarded as the greatest by many but I loved him deferring to George Best.
Now *that* guy was a character. I'll always remember his iconic quote: "I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."

CNN reports:
Brazilian soccer great Pelé says he's "strong" and has "a lot of hope" as he continues his treatment for colon cancer. Pelé's social media post on Saturday came after local media reports in Brazil said that the 82-year old former footballer's health had worsened. "My friends, I want to keep everyone calm and positive," said a statement on Pelé's Instagram page. "I'm strong, with a lot of hope and I follow my treatment as usual. I want to thank the entire medical and nursing team for all the care I have received. "I have a lot of faith in God and every message of love I receive from you all over the world keeps me full of energy. And watch Brazil in the World Cup too!" According to a hospital statement on Saturday, Pelé's health condition remains stable. "He [Pelé] has shown good response to the respiratory infection care, not showing any worsening of his condition in the last 24 hours," said Sao Paulo's Albert Einstein Israeli Hospital. |

True legend. Btw, are there any good documentaries about Pele that also have footage from his football games? I'd like to watch something like that.

Got that magic shot and his health nose-dived and now dead, what a shocker. RIP.
