Viggo Mortensen Is Better Than You
GQ motherfucker Viggo Mortensen is a renowned San Lorenzo fan. Besides being awesome, walking around with the colors and the crest everywhere, and traveling to Argentina to see matches, he is involved with the club's politics.
Today he used his website to call out some of the shady business people have going on with the club, under the title of "Preguntas sanlorencistas".
First of all, he took care of Carlos Abdo, who became SL's new president last Saturday. While fans of the club have been raising money to buy properties where the old stadium stood (trying to go back to the neighbourhood of Boedo) for years, Abdo bought a key property. But he claimed the club would have to pay him every cent for it. Nice, huh?
This is what Viggo had to say:
1) Mister Abdo, why did you buy the property in Las Casas, the one the club was about to buy? After making sure you'd get media coverage for your apparently kind gesture, supposedly contributing to the much desired return to Boedo, you told the club they'd have to pay you back for it. A lot of San Lorenzo fans have given their own money to buy properties, the ones that surround the place of the Viejo Gasómetro. They have given those properties to the club without asking for anything in return, even though they don't have the amount of money you do. Let's see if now that you've won the presidency, you'll do the right thing, giving the club that property for free and immediately.
But then, he had some words for Marcelo Tinelli. He is a popular tv host and producer, probably the most famous tv host in Argentina. He is also a huge San Lorenzo fan and a millionare. Last year, he announced a project to build a new house for the kids who are part of the youth system and live in the club. They are far away from their families, alone in Buenos Aires, and the current accomodations are a disaster. Tinelli raised the money (500,000 dollars) and presented the project. Nothing ever happened. But Viggo doesn't forget!
2) Mister Tinelli, you also earned media coverage when you presented the beginning of the construction of the new house for the kids of San Lorenzo. That's gone. It remained in the public's eye as a kind gesture from you, but nothing has been built. The project has been abandoned completely. Let's see if you can get your act together and you can take all the pictures you want stading next to the president, once this building you promised to our club is inaugurated. (buuuurn)
I love you Viggo, you speak every sanlorencista's mind. Abdo, Tinelli, you just got owned by Aragorn.
