Nakata and Kaka’s Naked, Gay Twin Make the News Day Less Boring

Things are incredibly quiet today. Where are the Shocking!Transfers? And what was Amauri’s agent doing while his client was saying he wouldn’t move this winter? Apparently Amauri has learned less than we thought about teasing.
Really, the most interesting stories in the news are two really sketchy ones. First, there are vague reports that Hide Nataka, who retired from football at an obscenely young age, might (or might not) be involved with a Japanese group that might (or might not) be considering buying struggling Perugia (now in Serie C1), the first Italian club with which Nakata played. Since the story comes from one of those dangerous, unsourced Tribal Football posts, and is reproduced by C4 with a reference only to “sources on the peninsula,” it’s probably dubious at best, but it is intriguing. Nakata seems to consider himself destined for a life outside football (and not, one hopes, just hanging around fashion shows), but he does have a history of providing financial support to clubs that have helped him: When he was playing with Roma, he actually sponsored Hiratsuka Bellmare — the club he played for in Japan — when they fell into dire financial straits shortly after his departure, so it’s not as outlandish as the typical, quote-less pieces in Tribal football.
The second “interesting” story is mostly just funny: A gay magazine in Brazil is apparently planning to run a nude picture of a guy who vaguely resembles Kaka (if you squint), and The Great One has resolved to sue their asses if they put his name anywhere near the issue. (Not, I’m sure, because of any sort of gay terror, but more because Jesus probably wouldn’t approve.) You know you’ve made it when people get their bits photographed just because they sorta look like you.
[Thanks to Lem for the Hiratsuka Bellmare background.]

Oh Ricardo. Jesus has seen you naked, he can tell your man bits from some random Brazillian…
What did I just type? Don’t sue me Ricky!
And Nakata. Wow, what a guy.

I’m not sure Ricky’s Jesus looks at those parts, Curry. On anyone.

I support Kaka and his work because he does really good stuff…I think people are just trying to cause trouble with that article in the magazine…

“Nakata and Kaka’s Naked, Gay Twin” When I first read that, I imagined a half japanese/half brazilian guy that was magically related to them both? and then i read the article, and my vision was crushed. pity.
aww, poor ricky. is it amusing? yes. but they really should leave him alone. and that dude really doesn’t look like him…the hair, i suppose, but not much else.

Hana, I totally thought the same thing. Then I got to wondering what a love-child between Nakata and Kaka would look like, clearly it was a productive day for me.

Ricky should leave THEM alone, surely? Way to make people sit up and take notice of your gay naked twin.

What Roswitha said — none of us would even know this was happening, were it not for the chest-pounding threat.
And I daresay a child of Kaka and Nakata would be VERY odd looking — all those angle in Nakata’s face would cause all sort of problems with Kaka’s genes. Thank god nature will save us the sight of that.

touche roswitha, you have a point.
and martha, i don’t know, the vision in my head wasn’t too bad looking actually. i know that it should be, but somehow it worked out…i’m really tempted to do a “If they mated” picture like on conan o’brien now…
