why does every commentator call Ronaldinho, Ronaldinhio?

Dear Nadiaowen, don't you know that we do NOT speak Spanish in Brazil? We don't speak Urdu or Sanskrit either -- only Portuguese.\n\nBTW, Pauleta9 and Ma.K, it's NOT the way we pronounce it in Brazil -- summing up, it's plain ignorance by the commentators (as if that was something new...)\n\nFinally, comoseshama (your pseudonym should be comoseChama), Ronaldinho is a nickname, not his last name. It means "little Ronaldo."

It is spelled beckenbauer, and I believe that Ronaldinho is way much better....

There is ONE and only ONE Pele. Nobody, not even Ronaldinho, can't replace Pele as the 'next Pele', because there is no such thing as the 'next Pele' :)

How can you even compare C. Ronaldo with Ronaldinho???\nDid you ever played soccer?\nDo you understand the game?\nBasically, what I am saying is that you have NO idea of what are you talking about!

well you should know that they play at different positions , \nronaldo is a forward , a goal scorer . while ronaldinho plays as a free center . \nnow that's why we see ronaldo scoring more goals especially when they both play together in the Brazilian national team . as ronaldinho creates the chances from forwards like ronaldo . and ronaldo's job is to put the final magic touch on that chance and turn it into a goal . now of course ronaldinho scores too , but less that ronaldo cause of the positions difference we talked about. \nnow if we come to abilities , ronaldo is fast and has a lot of tricks and moves up his sleeves. but ronaldinho has speed and all of ronaldo's tricks and more . he is what we call a magician , he can do stuff none other than him can do . ronaldinho can make you go WOOOOOOOOOOW on a small pass , that's something no one in the world other than him can do .

I'm not a big basketball fan (although I like it), but I totally understand what you mean. I guess some people think that at any point in time there HAS to be someone who is outstandingly good, and so they choose the best one at a certain time and end up making ridiculous comparisons between him and the greatest legends. And sometimes the numbers are on their side, but a number really doesn't mean that much.\n\nIt really annoys me, specially because there are young people who have never seen the best ones play and are led to believe they were not much better than the ones who are being compared to them. In soccer (my favourite sport) it's the same, they insist on comparing Ronaldinho to geniuses like Pelé and Maradona, which I think is almost a blasphemy. The guy is good, but come on! But I hope History will do justice to the ones who really were the best. Don't worry, Michael Jordan is a legend, it will take more than a few people's opinion for anyone to replace him in basketball mythology.

I see many INCOMPETENT comments (like the one from Michael B) and I am just wondering why people talks about soccer when they have no idea what the game is about!\nUnless you are INCOMPETENT like many of the answerers, if you know about soccer you should know when a player commit obstruction in the penalty box, the other team is awarded with penalty kick! It is so simple. But it is simple for those who understand the game. The others are just INCOMPETENT and express their arrogance and frustration with comments without any logic. \n\nbtw: why don't you guys go to the official FIFA site and watch again the highlights of the game? You will notice that Materazzi's red card was a non-sense: on his tackle he touched Zambrotta's leg and did not touch at all Bresciano. The yellow card (dangerous play) would have been already too harsh. Then watch again the foul on Grosso: clearly penalty kick (again, only if you have some knowledge about the game).

No, he's a cry baby.  Everytime he can't score, he'll look for a foul or cringe.  You see the expressions of frustation on his face.  Even when they winning he's like that.  He is a disgrace to the Ronaldo name.
