After Sam's lovely focus piece on Rio Ferdinand, I was obligated to follow up with my own tasty bit, this one on my favorite teenager in football, Mr. Lionel Messi. All you need to know is that this kid plays internationally for a perennial powerhouse in Argentina (where they call him the second coming of some guy named Maradona), and plays his club footy for the Champions of Europe in Barcelona. And when you have the likes of Ronaldinho, Samuel Eto'o, and Frank Rijkaard practically raising you on the football pitch (he's been in Barca youth development since he was 13), then you are destined for great things. I know it's way too early to even talk about it, but him and Carlos Tevez are going to go apeshit in South Africa 2010. Dude's also got a sweet Euro-mullet.
