I have been wondering though. You've got a bunch of big businesses that have deals with FIFA. Lots of American staples. Will be interested to see how deep this rabbit hole goes, or at least how far down we're willing to go.
I say open the whole thing up and expose all the corruption. This organization intimidates governments for crying out loud.
And maybe Nike will be found to have been involved with other improprieties beyond FIFA... like with a particular Pac 12 team... which ties into corruption to the NCAA... Please happen.
Somebody being an outsider helps illuminate truths. It's kind of like when people argue with me about college football.
I would like to take this opportunity to confirm that I do not -- and indeed have never even once had occasion to -- give an airborne **** who FIFA is. I think I speak for many of my fellow citizens as well.
More stuff this morning with the UEFA (Europe) President Michel Platini saying that he asked Blatter to step down (he refused), pledged support to Blatter's opponent in tomorrow's election and didn't rule out a possible boycott of the 2018 World Cup by UEFA.
