World Cup 2022, what happened?

[Hellbringer]

I would prefer to talk about the Premier League, since the season just finished with Swansea beating out Reading to get into the top flight for next season. That should have been the top Football story on the BBC.

But it wasn't.

Instead, I get to read how Jack Wagner and Mohamad bin Hammam may have bought Qatar the World Cup host site for 2022 and how FIFA may be shaken up. Did no one question Qatar's win or how they were in the running for hosting the World Cup before all this? And now, the FIFA organization is going to get drug through the mud which takes away the spotlight for the teams who did great this year, especially the edge-of-your-seat final days and weeks of playing to keep from getting relegated or trying to get promoted to the next level.

At least I don't have to read about Ryan Giggs doing whatever with TV reality celebrities right now.

hey leave Ryan Giggs alone, haha.

but yeah, all of this crap will definitely take the spot light away from the most important thing, THE GAME.

Big shock in a fix job..? The only more seedy thing is the Olympic selection ! It's big oil money that paid off some greedy elitist assholes ...it's a desert. I hope they chop some heads. The two biggest events and the two most corrupt, except for the SEC in college football.

World cup site selection panel made me question living. Why not have it in Iraq or on the Moon?
