Ten armed youths in Brazil robbed Pele nine days ago. It is being reported only now. Perhaps Pele wanted to keep it under wraps. The thieves took Pele's gold chain, watch and cell phone, which divided by 10 sounds like it doesn't amount to very much.

They probably didn't know.

Kids nowadays like that are dumb founded to the days of yore.

Ever watched City of God?

I'm sure they were parentless favella kids. Drugs still rule the street down there.
