The latest entry comes from Brazilian Soccer Legend Pele.

"I appeared on Maradona's chatshow last year and he made a joke about it. He said 'If you asked my mother who the greatest player ever to play football was, she would say Maradona; if you asked Pele's, she would say Pele'. I'd like to meet his mother, because I think she knows, if she's being honest, that the true answer is Pele."
