Champions League Should Be Re- Named After Me

Cristiano Ronaldo has owned the Champions League so much
that he wants the competition to name itself after him.
After Real Madrid beat Liverpool 3-1 on Saturday, Ronaldo
lifted the European Cup for the fifth time in his career -- the
first player to do so in the Champions League era.
And though he didn't find the net against Liverpool, Ronaldo
finished as the top scorer this season with 15 goals. It's the
sixth straight season he's finished with at least a share of the
lead -- a fact that he said should deserve even greater
recognition.
"Who was top scorer again?" he asked reporters. "The
Champions League should change its name and call itself the
CR7 Champions League... I've won five, top scorer again, I
can't be unhappy at that."
Ronaldo already has an airport, hotel chain and underwear
line named after him, so how about it, UEFA?
