Not Really News

Maradona Owns Up to Using Hand in '86 Cup

OK, everyone called Maradona's goal which beat England in their quarterfinal in '86 the "Hand of God", but it was a joke. We all knew it was Maradona, and he did it on purpose.

What a great player, though. Too bad he succumbed to drugs. I had tickets to see Argentina-Greece for the '94 World Cup here at Foxboro, and Maradona tested positive for drugs the day before. So I've only seen him on film.
