    Fair point. US justice is good at holding the powerful to account. It's probably a lot less good at upholding the rights of the poor who can't afford lawyers and have to rely on state attorneys.

    I hope they have evidence and hope he goes. They won't hesitate to grab him if they think they can hold him. The rich with lawyers can work the system. The poor don't get equal treatment unfortunately.

    Don't think he is innocent, but even if he was...resigning was the correct way to go. Time to rebuild faith in FIFA...tough enough without having Blatter still there.

    He's got to be implicated in something big.

    So all the FA had to do in order to become host in either 2006 or 2018, was pay 10 million dollars?! Why the hell didn't they just do it?! ;)

    It is sickening. Everyone found guilty should be jailed and then released daily in Orange suits and chains to clean the streets of every member country.

    Surely all those countries that spent money and resources on rival bids will be able to sue FIFA and the bribing countries. This is gonna roll on for a long time.
