R I P | SPANISH & WORLD SPORT LOSES JUAN ANTONIO SAMARANCH AT 89 YEARS OF AGE
JUAN ANTONIO SAMARANCH has died today at the age of 89 in Barcelona. I would be falling short saying that this man is directly responsable for where SPANISH SPORT ( in all its disciplines) is today. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) President from 1980 until 2001, he was the man who worked his heart out to give Barcelona & Spain its wonderful 1992 Olympic Games, apart from modernizing the Olympic Games as they are today.
Very sad day for Spain, Spaniards, Sportsmen/women & Spanish Sports as it loses a person who dedicated his life to Sport & who we will have to wait a very long time to see anything similiar again. Thank you José Antonio & RIP as you will be missed.
