Los ochenta eran años difíciles. La reconversión industrial estaba dejando en cueros a Bizkaia, se sucedían las huelgas y los enfrentamientos de los trabajadores con la policía. En las dos temporadas que el Athletic sacó la gabarra, ETA había asesinado a 117 personas (secuestros, extorsiones, amenazas y atentados fallidos aparte). Eran malos tiempos para todos, y también para la lírica y la épica del fútbol. Pero es cierto que el Athletic era como un alto en el camino, lo que cada uno interpretó a su manera.

Gli etologi hanno a lungo biasimato le interpretazioni del comportamento animale in termini di emozioni umane, avvertendo che l'antropomorfizzazione limita la nostra capacità di comprendere gli animali nella loro vera natura. Cosa dobbiamo pensare, però, di fronte a una femmina di gorilla che piange per giorni la morte del suo piccolo? O di una femmina di elefante che si prende cura di un'altra più giovane, dopo che questa è stata ferita da un maschio violento? Non sono questi chiari esempi del fatto che gli animali possiedono emozioni riconoscibili e un'intelligenza morale?

It set off a national crisis and the meltdown of a nuclear power plant. And even after the immediate emergency had abated, the trauma of the disaster continued to express itself in bizarre and mysterious ways.

It takes a certain kind of person to do whatever is necessary to make a living as a mixed martial arts fighter. And it takes another kind of person to stand out from all the rest as both a wild man and a rock star. Chris Leben, otherwise known as "The Crippler", is that kind of person.

Draghi, ciclopi, giganti, unicorni, fenici. Quando gli antichi si imbattevano in resti di animali sconosciuti, subito li attribuivano a creature fantastiche. Poi gli scienziati hanno dimostrato che si trattava solo di fantasie ancestrali: i mostri non esistono, oggi lo sappiamo tutti; eppure la spiegazione che gli studiosi hanno dato di quei reperti è stata addirittura più terrificante: prima di noi, una miriade di altri viventi abitava il nostro pianeta, ma ora non ci sono più. Sulla Terra, infatti, nulla è per sempre.

Ob im Wald, im Park, auf der Straße, ob vor oder nach der Arbeit, im Sommer, im Winter und natürlich bei Wettkämpfen – laufen kann man überall und jederzeit, es ist vielseitig und für jeden einfach und günstig machbar. Aber es steckt noch mehr dahinter: Es schult unseren Charakter und verhilft uns letztlich zu größerer Freiheit, erweitert unseren Horizont und lehrt uns viel über uns selbst und die Welt um uns herum.
