Rafa's popularity is skyrocketing folks. he is wildly popular.
people want just want to see him. they want to watch him play and they want to watch him practice.
they just want to be associated with him.
in light of all that, he remains unchanged and down to earth. I think he has done a great job of handling his skyrocketing popularity.
So true. He has always been very popular, but it does seem to be skyrocketing lately.
It's totally true. I also see that the popularity of Rafa is growing at a fantastic level.
He is being compared by many people as a hero of flesh and bone, because Rafa shows your human side of pain, struggle, grow with its ups and downs of life... This is simply a sublime contradiction.
People look at the Rafa's attitudes and they identify with him... and this reflect on them.
...Their strength, humility, respect and friendliness make him an example to be followed and admired.
