Voice, style, professionalism, innate talent to shine among the best of his time. Always accurate, touching the story with anecdotes and statistical numbers. Today he returns and shares criteria from infinity. Comment on the current sporting event, the chronicle drawn by the poetic flight and the sound images, the critical report, the necessary interview, the documentary with fine and diaphanous dramaturgy, the testimony of the great Cuban sportsmen and the comment that touches a problem in search of solution. Thus we remember him on the anniversary of his birth.
Héctor Rodríguez Almarales walked slowly through the halls and classrooms of the Union of Journalists of Cuba. There were Carlos Alberto Gonzalez, Luis Alberto Izquierdo, Sigfredo Barros and those who, like me, met him during the Course of sports commentators. That was a great privilege that I keep with pride. This time he was not fighting against death, like that July 22, 2012. This time he was happy, satisfied, robust. Hector returned among us to deliver love, spirit of sacrifice, defense of values and ethical principles. He returned because he knows that he is indispensable and necessary for teaching.
Founder of the National Sports News, militant of the Communist Party of Cuba and protagonist of excellent moments of Cuban sport, Hector deserves all the possible praise on his anniversary !Thank you, maestro!
