Outrageous article by Walla - "All Saints Day"

[ArnoldPettybone]

The answer is simple-they are just enraged that the situation is not a full 100% of the people supportive of maccabi.
For comparison, try to imagine a world in which olympiacos is in the third division, no SEF and no kokkalis/angelopoulos brothers to support the team. then replace every maccabi fan reply in this topic to the likes of users such as crazy green, and you will get the picture.

Tonight Walla published outrageous lies by Mr. Vainauskas - President of Rytas Vilnius saying that "All Saints Day" is memorial day in Lithuania and Vilna supposedly asked Euroleague and Maccabi to shift the game. He said that Maccabi refused and EL not answered...
I wondering - same "All Saints Day" is for all Western Europe countries, and it somehow does not bother Spanish Real, Barca and Tau, Italian Bologna, Slovenian Olimpija and French Le Mans to play tomorrow. Why only Rytas suddenly is offended? And why Walla publishes such a "news'???
I think it is all the same story again - like in Spahija case - crazy Vainauskas published all kinds of lies against Maccabi and Spahija, while have signed another coach... Psychological war against Maccabi by Rytas I can understand, but red Walla cooperating - it is really outrageous.

This is not the same "all saints day" as for all Western Europe. On 1 Nov lithuanians usually visit graves of dead relatives and friends. In Lithuania it is special day, I haven't seen that somebody in Western Europe lights up candles on graves on 1 Nov. Correct me if I'm wrong.

So in this context Vainauskas was right.

-- about being "red". BC Lietuvos rytas official color ir red. So what do you want?

-- about Spahija. Spahija had very "successful" season in Maccabi. He deserved every minute of his "glory". Life is the best judge for him. So forget this Spahija case once and for all. BTW, in Spahija war both sides Rytas and Maccabi published enough lies.


Anyway, I understand your feelings. It is not very pleasant, when some unknown club slaps in a face your almighty maccabi.. But according to E. Kusturica - Život je cudo..

In Portugal, Spain and Mexico, ofrendas (offerings) are made on this day. In Spain, the play Don Juan Tenorio is traditionally performed. In Belgium, France, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Portugal and Spain people bring flowers to the graves of dead relatives.

In Poland, Czech, Sweden, Finland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Lithuania, Croatia, Austria, Romania, Hungary and Germany, the tradition is to light candles and visit the graves of deceased relatives.

In the Philippines, the day is spent visiting the graves of deceased relatives, where they offer prayers, lay flowers, and light candles.

In English speaking countries, the festival is traditionally celebrated with the hymn "For All the Saints" by William Walsham How.
