I think the ban should be lifted until evidence of wrong doing is presented. Free the FIFA one!

Well there goes Blatter's Nobel Peace Prize!quote:In a move that will be a bitter pill for Sepp Blatter, who once harboured improbable ambitions to win the Nobel Peace Prize, the board behind the award is poised to terminate its relationship with Fifa. Chuck Blazer was facing as much as 75 years in prison: quote:Former Fifa executive Chuck Blazer agreed to go “undercover” to help the US government expose widespread corruption across world football in order to avoid spending the rest of his life in prison, according to details of his plea bargain made public on Monday.

(There's a significant typo in that article. Glazer was facing 75 years imprisonment maximum on consecutive sentences, not concurrent. His realistic sentence would be something like 7-12 years on the counts, concurrent to one another, and he'd serve between 15 and 80% of that depending on a range of factors.)

I doubt he will be alive in 7-12 years time. I guess he didn't want to spend the rest of his actual life in prison.

I know this is old news, but these quotes from Tim Roth are great: 'Tim Roth declined repeated requests to speak about United Passions, but in a stunning confession in May, before the scandal broke, to German newspaper Die Welt, the actor lamented playing Blatter. "Yeah, I apologize I didn't question the director, I didn't question the script," he said. "This is a role that will have my father turning in his grave." Roth admitted he took the job for the money, saying it helped him out of a "financial hole," adding, "but you know what? The hole FIFA has dug for itself is so deep, they'll never get out of it."' e: but wait there's more "FIFA originally had wanted to call the movie Men of Legend. “Can you imagine such a title? It’s nonsense,” the director says. “Then The Dreammakers. Come on.” Auburtin successfully fought for the United Passions title, an ironic play on the fact that FIFA has more member states than the United Nations."

Messi is a tax fraud, Neymar orchestrated a rule breaking, money laundering transfer and Xavi is a spokesman for an oppressive totalitarian regime. Next you'll tell me that Suarez is actually a racist who bites people.

I feel like they probably should have noticed the difference between a large country with Nelson Mandela as its figurehead leader and a microstate with slavery as its biggest industry.
