I have NEVER received the respect I deserve as the leader and founder of The Masterflock, the internet's largest and oldest Christopher Masterpiece fan group in all of history, and I DEMAND that changes. From now on, you will respect Skinty McEdger!

Space has no extradition treaty. It makes perfect sense to me.

Your brokebrain sin is absolved...go and shitpost no more!

I've always imagined that the powerful people in Switzerland who run corrupt multinational organizations live there basically so they can't get extradited and it's harder for their money to get taken away. Not sure if Blatter proves me right but it's certainly a piece of evidence in favor...

Blatter was asked “hand on heart” if he would renege on his promise to go. “I am not a candidate, but the elected president,” Blatter said in an interview given several days ago. “And I want to hand over Fifa in good condition.”

So he's actually leaving probably maybe next year

I think the real issue here is that a lot of people don't really understand what Something Awful really is. I have devised a theory that I think will answer a lot of questions. You see, SA is remarkably similar to Middle-Earth. Yes, that's right; Middle-Earth, the setting for the Lord of the Rings. Middle-Earth is just like SA, and when I explain it to you, you'll slap your forehead and go "Of course!"

Etc

Anywhay I don't see how a non-corrupt person could come in from the FIFA Family and clean out their house, and an outsider is going to be royally hosed around with by 3/5ths of their member base. So basically either gently caress international football or Fatafati Fatal Workplace Accident rate.

Spanish football league becomes first to take legal action over Qatar World Cup dates

FIFA’s weather-related move of the 2022 World Cup from to November-December has its first legal challenge.

The Spanish league has filed an appeal against FIFA’s decision to switch the tournament’s dates due to searing summer temperatures in Qatar, saying the 8-week break midway through the season would cost the league close to $72 million.

The legal move, of course, comes as many in the world hope that FIFA will strip hosting duties from Qatar over issues as far-ranging as bribery to horrific workers’ conditions (and horrific might be an understatement).

From the Associated Press: "The Spanish league is a member of the European Professional Football Leagues group, which was consulted. FIFA rejected a European clubs and leagues proposal to play in May-June. Spanish sports newspaper As quoted LFP President Javier Tebas as saying he had filed the lawsuit 'in defense of the interests of the clubs that are contributing to the international teams.' "

In many ways, it’s easy to think a location change for the 2022 tournament is inevitable, but never forget how high-powered of a legal defense can be purchased with Qatari and FIFA money. The tournament may’ve been awarded in a foul manner, but work has already begun for the tournament. We don’t have to like it, but presumably this battle may be closer to its beginning than a final resolution.

Presumably this is also somehow related to the ongoing fight between La Liga and the Spanish FA (which is fully pro-Qatar because they don't want anyone investigating the shady poo poo associated with their own bid).

A lot may change after the July elections. Should Laporta win, the new management would be significantly less pro-Quatar than the current one.
