I've been following this for a while now, and I have decided not to watch the 2022 World Cup. Brazil and Russia are both corrupt in their own ways, but the bribery in the voting process and the treatment of workers there is in a whole other realm (How many deaths are they up to already? 1000?).

Pretty depressing for me, as you all know that I take pride in being an openly homosexual soccer fag. Fire Sepp Blatter and move it to the US, and maybe I will reconsider. The soccer haters have every right to criticize FIFA. Crooked as a dog's hind leg.

What I don't get is that soccer is reaching an apex in terms of support in this country. You have the top English teams coming over here every year. You have the head of the Spanish Premera Division talking about wanting to expand their footprint in the US including possible league matchups. You're finding more and more US players choosing to stay home in MLS.

IF they wanted to do, it would be very easy to expand the Champions League such that the US and really Mexico were brought into the discussion. Getting North America even more tied into the Champions League would be a no brainer IMO and with transportation to/from the US and Europe easier than it has ever been, you could also very easily have a breakout "Super League" with the Top Teams from Europe breaking off from the "Financial Fair Play" that is in place right now.

I'm all for the World Cup going to other parts of the world. Russia makes sense. Strong domestic league. Fairly strong national team. Qatar makes ZERO sense. It's just a flat out bad idea. The sooner Sepp Blatter gets away from the European control the better for soccer in general.

Purple J, thanks for the heads up. Truly awful.

If this is the only reason you've decided not to watch soccer then you need to reexamine all of your choices in life.

What do you mean? Qatar allows Obubba to to funnel all his weapons to al Qaeda...I mean freedom fighters, forgive me. They're our new buddy.
