Ramón Ortiz (not the Cubs pitcher) of Gral. San Martin, a small pro soccer club in Argentina, is suing the team for transfer permission because, he says, the female owner was constantly coming on to him. Best quote:
“If she was hot I would have hit it… but the truth is I didn’t have the guts, and that’s not how I handle myself.”
The president, Griselda Cardozo, left several provocative messages on Ortiz’s phone, he claimed.
According to Ortiz, “The president behaved very poorly towards me. When I was playing for the club, she would leave messages on my phone saying she wanted to sleep with me.”
He continues, “I never had a woman president in my previous clubs, that really surprised me. To make matters worse, she sent me the messages and then asked me to erase them, so I did. If I had kept them, I could have easily obtained my transfer.”
“Honestly, I’m going to regret going to that club for the rest of my life.”
What does she look like? According to enunabaldosa.com, she’s in the middle of this photo.
