Cristiano Ronaldo is the biggest athlete in the world, if social media is any indicator. His ability to move merchandise is seen by the record number of endorsements he has. He's the man who has it all but there's an apparent darkness inside the man. Ronaldo is alleged to have raped a woman he met in Las Vegas 12 years ago. Now that he's re-signed for Manchester United, the football world can't get enough but even as millions avoid the discussion, we decide to tackle this difficult subject and our feelings towards it head on. Disclaimer: We try not to pronounce judgment or claim to know anything beyond what is already out, this episode is a raw stream of conciousness and designed to start a much needed discussion about celebrity idolatry in the midst of serious allegations.
