Haha, can't think of a better way to reverse popular anti-american feelings about all those wars in ME than this.
Of all the countries, it is the US that ends up saving football.

Oh my  :
http://www.uefa.org/about-uefa/executive-committee/news/newsid=2252026.html
quote:The UEFA Executive Committee met today in Warsaw and issued the following statement:
Today's events are a disaster for FIFA and tarnish the image of football as a whole.
UEFA is deeply shocked and saddened by them.
These events show, once again, that corruption is deeply rooted in FIFA's culture.
There is a need for the whole of FIFA to be "rebooted" and for a real reform to be carried out.
The upcoming FIFA Congress risks to turn into a farce and therefore the European associations will have to consider carefully if they should even attend this Congress and caution a system, which, if it is not stopped, will ultimately kill football.
The UEFA member associations are meeting tomorrow ahead of the FIFA Congress. At that point, the European associations will decide on what further steps need to be taken to protect the game of football.
In the meantime, the members of the UEFA Executive Committee are convinced that there is a strong need for a change to the leadership of this FIFA and strongly believe that the FIFA Congress should be postponed, with new FIFA presidential elections to be organised within the next six months

Another element here is that these are Europeans facing american jail sentences. Criminal, not civil. They'll plead out but even their pleas will be more severe sentences than anything they would face in Europe.
Wait has something new come up? I thought that all arrested were from Americas, big names from CONCACAF etc.?
