Thanks to DtL reader meri for tipping me off to another accolade being given to the world's top baller, Rafael Nadal.
The Mallorcan Matador received the inaugural International Award for Sport given out by the Governing Council of the Community of Madrid. The award is given to the athlete who possesses sporting merits and human values represented in fair play, delivery, sacrifice and team spirit.
Rafa has already earned a number of honors this year including the ATP's year-end No.1, Prince of Asturias, and GQ Men of the Year.

ReplyDelete"DTL readers, I love you all so much. I have dreams about all of you, especially Rich. You all make me so happy. Johanne, Babz, Sonja...I feel faint.
Oh yes, and natch...I'll see you down under..."
No, really, that's what he said. Tune in again to Babz FM, otherwise known as EL TORO. You'll hear the same translation.
Hahahaha I was thinking I heard "Sonja, babz, natch...." between all that Spanish rambling.
