How many cork hats and kangaroos do we have to give these loving officials until they let us host the cup? Stupid FIFA. What did Russia give them that's so great?

The problem is that after attempting to bribe the officials, we didn't have any left with which to bribe the ethics committee. PS: For the love of god don't go to youtube and view Australia's World Cup bid video. I had nothing to do with it and remain embarrassed by association.

It's because FIFA is filled with old white dudes that are conservative and they probably have raging boners over people in the middle east being hosed-over because that's how right-wingers think. Don't ask.

It's like not even a secret whatsoever and nobody seems to really give a poo poo. The only thing really talked about in media is FIFA's corruption re the whole bribery thing but no one mentions hundreds of people dying and thousands being forced to work for free; it's kind of disgusting imo.German FIFA executive posted:"This feudal system existed [in Qatar] before the World Cup," he said. "What do you expect of a football organisation? Fifa is not the lawmaker in Qatar". lol get hosed Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 09:10 on Nov 19, 2014 |

"none of us made the call to build the world cup on slave labor that ones all on raul" and then raul walks out on the pitch with his music blaring and blindsides alexi lalas with a steel chair.

The Olympics and World Cup aren't going to any democracies for the next 15-20 years. Places like China, Russia, and repressive Mid East regimes are only going to fork over the compunction and capital to outright bribe FIFA and IOC. Tony Abbott might be top dog in Australia, he isn't in the same league to shirtfront guys like Putin.
