he stepfather of Argentine football star Carlos Tevez has been freed after being kidnapped on the outskirts of Buenos Aires and held for eight hours.
Juan Alberto Cabral was taken by a group of men while driving his car in Moron, some 30km (19 miles) west of Argentina's capital.
Police said Tevez's family had received several calls from the men demanding a ransom to free Mr Cabral.
Local media say a ransom of 40,000 pesos (£3,000; $5,000) was paid.
Neither the family nor the authorities have confirmed whether a payment was made.
"He is OK", a spokesman for the family said.
Tevez's biological father was killed when he was young, and the player was raised by Mr Cabral.
The former Manchester United and Manchester City striker is reported to have left Italy, where he now plays for Juventus, to travel to Argentina.
The BBC's Ignacio de los Reyes in Buenos Aires says it is unclear whether the kidnapping was pre-meditated or if the group just targeted an expensive-looking car.
It is not the first time relatives of football stars have been the targets of kidnappings in Argentina.
In 2002, the brother of former Argentina and Barcelona player Juan Roman Riquelme was kidnapped and the footballer allegedly paid $160,000 (£95,000) to free him.

I didn't say Cavani was shyte, just that Di Maria was better to me.Dude clearly struggled at PSG, but c'mon we are talking about a player that scored over 100 Serie A goals in 3 seasons
Honestly if y'all might have been better off if he was your main man instead of Ibra (considering Cavani still got a lot of years left in his prime)
Plus, PSG needs a guy like Di Maria because they struggled against deep defenses last season. Apart from Lucas or Pastore, there is no proper dribbler in that team who can bring the ruckus in that type of defense. Lucas needs a little more space and Pastore doesn't fit in a 4/3/3. Di Maria can play on both wings and also as a left CM so overall, if PSG gets rid of a Lavezzi (who's a good player, didn't say otherwise), they'll be better IMO.
The Dap Cong is such a shytty organization.
It happens :Below the fold though, there was a story about the NYPD arresting subway dancers. My first thought was, "Yeah that does sound fukking annoying." I was siding with the NYPD. Despite all evidence pointing to it affecting young people of color, and it sapping the city of some sort of culture, and the NYPD actively making life worse on Earth, there I was, my feelings and convictions experiencing fissures right before my eyes.
But the subway dancers did sound fukking irritating. Stuck in a metal cylinder with no exit, christ, I couldn't imagine. Luckily I never saw one when I was in NYC. I would've grumbled a bit and came to post on the coli about it.

When you put it like that I totally agree, Pastore is more of a trequartista, Lavezzi is better for straight counter attacking football(as was shown during his time in Napoli) n Cavani is kind of surplus considering Ibra, Di Maria would complement that team greatly with him on one flank and Lucas on the other

my friend lives in DC because he's on a diplomatic mission from brazil, he's in the brazilian navy. so my friend has a dept. of defense ID - looks exactly like a military ID but says "foreign national" on it. he uses it to boss his way through a line here and thereyou cant jsut say that without the story
we were in manhattan for some dumbass event full of people and felt like jumping the line. security guards in nyc have hard-ons for military members because 9/11 ra ra ra
what we didn't know was these security guards were cops and started asking my friend what his paygrade was and all this full metal jacket patriot bullshyt. he was a little taken aback because he has a strong accent and couldn't understand these bay ridge a$$holes, so i explained to him what they were saying, and we tried to leave. they start rattling about ICE and saying some xenophobic shyt, and told us to speak english or they'd have us arrested. of course they weren't gonna do that, but the fact that breh hit me with "welcome to america, we speak one language here" when i was born in Washington, D.C. pissed me off. i cussed him out in portuguese (stupid, i know, regardless of language) and they were tryin to get brolic with us.
not a great story, just an account of NYPD being pricks. i think OFT alone is at a story per week on this topic at this point

Always those. In New York of all places.
I don't like to say it but NY would be better without some people. Reason why I have fallen out of love for the city. I wish Bane would come through and run shyt already.
