What's the Big Deal??

A lot of fuss has been made on the peninsula about the fact that not one Italian player was listed in a group of 30 nominees for the Golden Ball. I don't get why anyone cares...

When Kanye West made his big scene by claiming Beyonce should have won a music award instead of Taylor Swift, my first reaction was to ask myself "when has a music award ever gone to someone that deserved it?"

Much the same, the Golden Ball is a marketing tool for the French Football Magazine and any player of the year award that doesn't have Paolo Maldini's name on it at least once isn't a real award at all.
