I didn't read the article but that zoom feature when you scroll over the picture of Blatter is fucking cool.

Best thing i saw online in 2015.

He probably realized the evidence was getting too close to him. Valcke had been implicated already (although not charged yet).

There's a report that the DOJ is releasing Chuck Blazer's testimony tomorrow. That may have something to do with it as well.

Best day in soccer in years.

Glad this tone deaf a-hole is finally leaving (in 4-10 months). From the corruption to his sexist bullshit, he deserved to be thrown out of office. Sad not enough people had the balls to vote him out.

FIFA paid Ireland 5 million over Henry handball:

It's either dollars or Euros, and it either was a loan that didn't need to be repaid or it wasn't.

 

Can we get a little something for Frings' handball in 2002?

You thinking our fed hasn't gotten any FIFA money? Part of me thinks the fed is screwed on this because everyone has their hand in the till, but they will be held accountable (ie no US World Cup) since the investigqtion came from our shores. Soccer wins, but USA soccer loses all their FIFA buddies.

I am kind of hoping that they will remove WC from Russia and host it in England.  There, I said it ;)

I don't think he's really leaving at all unless it is in handcuffs...

Why do you think they'd win it? They could play each game down a goal and they still wouldn't win the tournament.

Because it's fifa and England, not like it didn't happen before.

Apparently you've not read the reviews of FIFA's wonderful biopic, United Passions. FIFA utterly despises England.

I doubt you read it either, since it is not a book but either way if 2018 wc is moved to England as Igor suggested my money would on on England winning it
