I accept that I am no authority but understand the background for my comment. When at the Budd company I had two former Portugese players working for me, one had played for FC Porto the other for the other for Benifica, they were related to each other. At one time I was invited to one of their houses for a party. At the party was a former player for Barcelona. Naturally conversation turned to soccer as they tried to educate me. Part of the education was the importance of the Europa Cup vs. the World Cup, each clearly preffered to win the Europa Cup. It was a World Cup year. The possibility exists that because they had no chance for the World Cup they did not place fair impotance on it. As for your comparisons to Olympic Gold I would also strongly disagree from an American standpoint. I think most players would prefer to win the Stanley Cup in Hockey, the World Series trophy for baseball or the NBA CHampionship Trophy in Basketball and if American football were played the Super Bowl Trophy would be more highly prized than Olympic Gold. Got to admit the championship rings that come with winning are highly prized besides the trophy. A good guess for the NFL would be around $10,000.00 per ring. In the NFL there is a $5,000.00 league limit but almost all teams owners kick in additional money driving the value to as high as $20,000.00. Most teams do not divulge the final value but dollar wise it beats a Gold Medal to death. If golf gets to the Olympics I also think wining either the British Open, the US Open or the Masters would be preferred over Olympic Gold. I know I would. The PGA trophy is not as highly prized but might also be preffered. BTW...... I should have added that one of the Portugese players working for me had been banned for life for assaulting a referee. If he could get a Porto came on his radio it was an adventure to watch him listening. We were a service group, he would even pay other welders to take his turn on service calls as they came in so he could listen to the game....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
