I'm not sure what it says about America that we'll process through a shady bank transaction that not even the Cayman Islands would touch.

Our banks already handle the financial affairs of a number of cartels. Whats one more?

I forget: wasn't one of them found to actually be holding money from one of the Mexican drug cartels?

I think that was Chase.

Also, Bank of America and Wells Fargo have been caught laundering money for the cartels.

Surely a country with an official third gender will be able to understand neutrality and impartiality

Why do you assume the third gender is neutral?

Seems kinda sexist.

So Sepp has this to say about Uruguay holding a World Cup


Qatar with it's noted large tracts of land however is good to go

Wasn't the premier league threatening to not release its players if they moved to winter?

As much as everyone would love to see that it wont ever happen.

FIFA will win and do what they want, make all the money and declare it the best World Cup ever.

I wouldn't return it either.

Platini is scum, but he's right to argue against it. FIFA didn't say poo poo during the World Cup to avoid more bad press or they just dont give a poo poo.

It would be the best World Cup in history and '94 would then become the second best World Cup in history.

The sport will be in it's final death throes by then anyway. But what a way to go--in the arms of the most exceptional country to grace God's Earth.

Edit: and the only country to grace God's moon.
