Fox Sports Argentine journalist
What is football?
"Seen where? "From the rostrum, from television, from the field, from inside, from outside? I would say is the world's most popular sport, which has a large number of fans, who hid in his habitual extravagance to play with his feet. Do not try to find a dictionary definition, do not pretend to maneuver tiny words to tell if a game, sport, business, competition, a show, a show. In fact, I feel I can be, and all that. And none of that too. I
I can not define, beyond recognizing it a social phenomenon elusive for explanation.
reporters:
are supposed to be critical, analysts said. T he interpretation of the critical links with the perception, in the living tastes, trends and interests, changing the subject of analysis.
These changes are compounded when the distortion produced by the analyst comes from a poor knowledge of the events analyzed, ignorance that can be hidden behind a good and empty literature, a nice speech and perhaps a good image.
So the false prophets may appear absolute masters of absolute truths. Should not feel representative of collective thought and a gifted discoverer of truths ignored. There
who flatter the recipient aficionado of all required messages, assuring them that their ingenuity are capable of building a new concept in the use of old appeals. This equates to believe that changes have occurred only in the formal order not to betray the basic origins of the game and try to reassemble modern units with old pieces of high technology. Impossible. It is thought embraced romantic, sentimental and nostalgic appeal, rooted in yesterday, when it is passed today. Art is long, but the artistic district of football is not all football, has other things that are loaded with scars, which requires constant maintenance to make the new elements provided by delivering applied science on the basis of achieving an adequate physical and competitive.
There are others who understand that everything has changed, that the origin is just the starting point because the road has changed completely. Are those who believe that nothing is the same, using the currency valuation, the future, the idea that progress is back. A thought that is far from the sense that some give to football as a cultural phenomenon to highlight concepts and styles that seem to fall by the wayside before the advance of success. Near the soulless formula, containing pragmatic, with many styles and none, with the advantages and deformation of modernity, his face multicapaz cyber robot.
These confrontations have been a witness to viewers who are not specialists, are not players, are not technical, or players or journalists ... .. just sometimes are agonists and other antagonists, but always being told that their role is more important.
Maybe it is, the demagoguery that is. Hence my doubts. I prefer to think that their knowledge is based on all that is known beyond what can be purchased with a reading of the show that presence.
understand football, see it, is much more to keep the ball, actions of the players of one side or the spectacle of those who excel.
is being able to think of it as a collective game and solidarity whose mystery is to understand how the dark hold the light.
grew up in the neighborhood of Flores in Buenos Aires.
At age 8, handing out newspapers in the neighborhood of Flores and the 15 was a cadet at Radio El Mundo, where he became business manager. In 1950, according to his resume, he joined the staff of radio journalists and shortly after the team of "Towards the stadium." For many years he was both. In journalism at least, says it is self-taught, although he admits: "I have stolen a little bit to each higher values, but the last opinion I always settled for. "
Since 1958 he traveled to all the world: "The FIFA sent me a special appreciation for that. I'm the only Argentine and the first in the world in business ... but speaking of my age rather than my knowledge," he jokes. 14 global

Journalism "before or now? Now. Today's journalists are well informed, the technology will open a possibility that we did not have and can make a more complete journalism, although the formation and use of language in the current is getting worse. When I started, I say that the journalist was an intellectual, but was closer to the writer than anything else. Then I had very good but then it was not true what they had, after reporters showed up got inside the stadium, people are much more interested in the tactical, to know football, to try to find answers. This is still something so rich that never stop learning.
Do you like how it relates today? There are very good young reporters, anyway I noticed a particular phenomenon: it tells football on television and radio like radio is told as if it were television. And I explain. People want excitement, so on TV, but not really needed because they are the images that vertigo is related to the radio. And then I go in the car listening to the radio and I would not say in what geographical area of \u200b\u200bthe field is the play, got used to relate through a monitor and that people are watching. When I was young there was a map of the field: the ride for this sector, he spends here, the type of radio was imagining. Today they got used to that and forget the details, that people are not watching TV. Still, there are very good reporters. Unfortunately, there is a young journalist who has to compete in the aggressive or cronyism to get some advantage over the other. And I say aggressive because they believe this goes through a question of courage, to kill a referee or a player.
Can you comment on a match watching it on TV? For me, it borders a lot and I care to comment on these cases, because television enriches you with small details, things that many are inadvertent and impoverish you in the picture. And I want to see the picture because I know that every ball that goes around comes around, and then I want to know how it stands a team when the ball goes back.
What are you looking on the court when it says? When I work for TV, the ideal is to be in the field to see the big picture and have the monitor for details. On the court looked everything from where located an archer, how stands a defender, do not follow the ball constantly, try to imagine what will happen to a team when you lose the ball, because besides football is that, otherwise would end all parties from 100 to 0 . I look at how they are prepared for the return and where the play takes them and if they are distracted or not. These things help explain the game. Where do
passed the comment of a game? As positional and development of positional. Mark tactics, the distribution of players on the field and see how he develops this tactic, because the strategy (the plan of the coach) did not know. How
is prepared to comment? I'm not prepared. I know the formations and ready.
From the people I spoke to who knew more about football? Juan Carlos Lorenzo and Osvaldo Zubeldia. Besides the knowledge gained in Europe, Lorenzo kept his natural mischievousness of Argentina. He said that the most dull Argentine made you a watch. Once Zubeldía arming asked me to lunch with Lorenzo, I worked in Radio and it was amazing Province: although they were on different computers, because Lorenzo was the coach of San Lorenzo, Zubeldía told him everything I did in Students , set pieces I had, everything. Zubeldía felt admiration for Lorenzo. They talked and I listened to extract things, and occasionally asking me an opinion. Victorio Spinetto also wondered how he saw certain things, and then drew their conclusions.
What is "know football? Understand the game, why pass the things that happen within a field, know the fortuitous circumstance, which caused the error and technical characteristics of individuals, among other things.
you never crossed him lead a team? No, but I would have liked. I've had dialogues, consultations, but serious proposals, no. Did
much journalist-player relationship 40 years today? Yes, I always had a different characteristic. To me, Cacho Fontana told me "You invented the you." He treated all of you and marked a distance. Because if you drink too much confidence in a player and then criticize him, he believes betrayed him, then "you" mark a distance. Still, in general were more distant, there are more cronyism.
Why give that cronyism? Because young people need the hero, the media would require young journalists notes with the players and how to reach the stars is. Does not seem right, I think it's limiting.
Not it seems a lack of respect when reporter, commentator and reporter began to speak in code and leave out the viewer? Yes, and my teammates know it. "A Macaya not like to do this," he said, but they do the same.
"Journalism in general knows there is much Sanata football? Known. And there Sanatan, you clarified.
Do you feel that sports journalism is rejected, something like the idiot brother of journalism in general? Yes, it can be ... is less bright in the intellectual, less deep, because if you do it well deeper intellectual as you understand it. Caution: not to say that those who make sports journalism than a category less intellectual, that's another thing. Many are concerned and so immediately say: "I am not a sports journalist, I'm a journalist first." In my case, I never felt concerned, I like what I do, I'm convinced I do. Ever
criticism bothered him that he did not "play" in their opinions? Sure, still bothers me, but many do not understand a thing is an answer based on knowledge and kill anyone else's sake. I never thought of changing my style, I'm happy with my career.
Does an estimate of how much you have traveled in your life? No, but it is much, because when I traveled work I did for pleasure. Except for some parts of China and some countries in Africa, the rest we know.
Incorporate "technology in football or is it okay to live with the errors? Surely the incorporated and will be done also for extreme situations. Also change some rules. For example, to the side with the foot or hand. If not, it is very easy to throw the ball away, then you return it total, with how bad the sides are now. If the side you do an important move, would be more careful before removing.
worked in radio, TV and graphics. What is the most difficult? The graph. It is also the most formative. The requirement of writing is not speaking. In television until you can talk hands: if you get a word you implying with gestures. In radio you can not finish a sentence or misuse of verbs, but in the letter, no. I find it hard to write, easy TV and radio entertains me greatly, because I am also very radio listener.
you ever received an envelope to speak well of a player? Never.
But is there or not? Yes, I think so.
Do you agree with the free football for everyone? There is no free football for all. Someone has to pay, what changes is who pays. I feel like I'm paying citizen while others are free.
Ever feel nostalgia for soccer before? No, I like to investigate, then I always find some reason to entertain with the modern game.
Who was the best coach Argentina? Zubeldia, Lorenzo and Bielsa.
What do you suggest the phrase "football people like him? You imagine what you mean: football with beauty, aesthetics and to deliver results. Who does not love that? The football is beautiful and durable results, and no results will die.
best teams
Do you see? Speak Selections: Brazil 70, Netherlands 74, Argentina 86. When Holland thrashed us in Germany 74, were leaving the court and Osvaldo Ardizzone said, "Now we have to invent words, with which we always use this we can not explain." Holland was revolutionary.
After Alfredo D'Stefano, Pele and Diego third. Maradona Pele "before? Pelé changed her life in Brazil, appeared and Brazil began to win it all. Before they were a good team that is frightened by some kicks. Pele was more complete, more physical rest, capable of playing all the luxuries but simple. Diego was more technical wealth, especially in the left-handed, always more colorful players.
The ball gives us a respect for self and others. Master is the first inevitable. From there, each earning a place in the ranks, according to his ability and talent. The ball is a single reference in our lives.
Any number ten.
