Portugal's favorite son is, by the country's own account, decidedly impish. He won't admit it, but he's likely not pleased with the fact that his height has been badly represented.
On the other hand, Ronaldo must be very impressed with the interpretation of his, um, manhood in the statue. Apparently his compatriots think highly of him in at least one area.
