The us investigation has been going on for decades.

It's been going on for six years according to the man who investigated corruption in 2010 for BBC's Panorama (Andrew Jennings).

Valcke has denied he is the official who made key payments.

At least six. U.S. reports have been saying that the investigation states side has been in the works since 1994, when Clinton apparently directed it be opened.

Oh, so instead of sour grapes over not hosting the World Cup it was sour grapes over not winning the World Cup that we hosted.

It was probably known after the US got it that we had to pay people off for the WC, and since it's no the IOC or one of our sports leagues Clinton probably directed the DOJ to find out just how deep the rabbit hole of corruption was.

Apparently about an hour after that denial was issued, a letter came up in a story by the New York Times implicating Jerome Valcke

Clinton just wanted to know for certain who was who. The sleaziness of the sleazoids he pardoned on his way out is mind-boggling.

Fifa have called a press conference this afternoon at short notice (I think less than an hour). The media weren't exactly prepared:

Western Europe is a decadent cesspool of corruption, faggotry and moral decay. They lost their balls in WWII and the pussy whipped dickless wonders won't let them graft them back. Frankly, it's disgusting and appalling how men feared throughout the world have turned into women, slapped around by muslim immigrants, enslaved and subservient to blood oil money, quaking in their boots in their own god damned countries they no longer own or control.

Sepp will rule supreme and Western Europe will take it and enjoy it, because that's how it likes it, like a ravaged whore that it is.

Agreed, I hope some kind of strong leader sorts us out and unites us behind a common purpose, or lacking that...a common enemy.

Some choice quotes

quote:

Media room not prepared. Staff rushing to install power cables. Clear sign of the haste with which Fifa called this press conference.

quote:

Fifa spokesperson refuses to confirm what the news conference in just over one hour's time is being called for.

The Euros were not better than the last World Cup it's not even funny.

Euros are pretty drat boring in fact. Copa America is often more interesting.

Euros need to be majorly restructured if they want to be interesting enough to match the World Cup. Nobody outside of Europe watches that poo poo.

Greece won in 04, therefore the Euros are cool and good and fair. Hail UEFA.

It's a Let's Play where he spends an hour creating a custom female player, only to throw the controller down and storm off when he realizes that he can't edit the length of the shorts.
