Mourinho Gets Doctorate
an article from today:
There’s not a lot Jose Mourinho hasn’t done in his short managerial career. For one he’s won a crap ton of trophies, including the Champions League, Premier League, as well as being well on his way to his first Serie A title. Not to mention he has probably pissed off every single person he has come into contact with at one point or another. He’s a media “darling”, and is more successful at filling his day by picking on random people than anyone I have ever seen before.
Well you can add to that rather impressive list that “The Special One” is now “Dr. Special One”. Yes that’s right, Jose Mourinho has received his Doctorate. Well, sort of:
Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho was awarded an honorary doctorate Monday from Lisbon’s Technical University, where he graduated in physical education and sport more than 20 years ago.
“I’m not sure I deserve this accolade,” Mourinho said. “I’m surprised by it. I’m probably a source of pride for the faculty, but I’ve pursued my career without thinking about such things.”
So basically if all things hadn’t fallen into place here, Jose would be the most badass gym teacher on the face of the planet. “You no like dodge ball? Why you no like dodge ball? Shut up your face.” If you don’t respect Jose the special doctor gym teacher you know he’s going to set up a press conference with all the local papers saying you can’t handle the pressures of the 3rd grade national fitness test, make snide remarks about your background, then spit in your lunchbox. And nobody will think twice about it. Because he is Jose the special doctor gym teacher. Respect.
Wearing a gray suit but no tie, the 46-year-old Mourinho was wrapped in a dark gown and a ribbon with a medallion was placed around his neck during a formal ceremony.
God, I need to see this picture immediately. If that’s what they do for the gym teachers, imagine what the bio-chemists get.
The university said the tribute was in recognition of his professional success.
However, some faculty members opposed the award, saying Mourinho hadn’t achieved enough to merit such a high distinction.
How are you going to go and oppose a university educated gym teacher turn football managerial genius getting a doctorate? That’s like opposing not killing people. It just doesn’t make sense. Once again, Jose proves that he is on a whole other level and we are all just here to watch his greatness unfold.

how the he'll did any of you ever bag on him? He is amazing. I would pay good money just to have lunch with him!
Dear sweet 8 pound 6 ounce baby Jesus in your golden diaper, please do something to make jose come back to Chelsea. Please Lord? Please?
Dr special one. LOL. I love it. Dirty tackle is officially bookmarked now.
well... benitez just signed a new deal, so that's one less destination for him. leaving, in my opinion:
• man city
• real madrid
• chelsea
i'd put his chances of staying at inter at about 15% at this point. we shall see.
oh man. That is one glorious article. I haven't laughed out loud by myself like that in a while. I'm so torn on liking or hating the guy. He's so ridiculous he's almost like Al Davis. He's so horrible he's awesome (I guess the difference is Jose wins stuff...... the Raiders, not so much in recent years).
I predict Real Madrid. I think he wants to have a trophy from each league. Plus I think it will still take a few years for the Manchester United position to free up. I say 1st Real Madrid, then Manchester United, then Portugal National team, then starting a business selling little minature gold figurines of himself.
I'll buy a gold figurine of Dr. Special One.
