They must have something on him, and he knows it.

Unfortunately he said he would only drink Bud Light Lime or wear stupid Adidas shoes or take a bite out of everything from everything on McDonald's dollar menu if those companies pulled their sponsorships of FIFA.

That or he's really feeling the heat from that letter that named Jerome Valcke linking him to a $10 million bribe. Could you imagine if they linked him to bribes to Russia and Qatar though?

That's great news, but I still don't see them making the changes they'd need to make.

RS on the soccer board!?

Sepp is a pretty delusional guy in terms of his power and FIFA. Something pretty serious had to come down the pipe for him to do this just days after being reelected.

I feel the chant from Bush's goodbye, "na na na na, say heyyy goodbye..." is appropriate for this day.

So does Sepp run in the special election? Or would that make it to obvious that FIFA won't change?
