It'd be crazy to see a collection of not/less corrupt rich ppl basically form their own league to rival FIFA. I know its fever dream shit, and not established in the real world, but I think in lieu of reality being better, its nice to just dream with kind intentions for the future
Being in the US I had no idea how awful FIFA was. I keep learning more and more. To take the humble "Beautiful Game" and corrupt it so is incomprehensible to me. I call it football btw.
And the fans don’t care. They wouldn’t care if FIFA murdered babies every morning.
They’ll just say something tearful about how the World Cup is about bringing people together and so on to justify supporting this shit.
Fuck FIFA, fuck the World Cup and fuck all its fans.
And in fact, fuck soccer in general. It would be a fun game but people always take it way too seriously and use it to exclude others and promote tribalistic behavior, often violent.
FIFA could literally murder a baby at the beginning of every match, saying it is necessary, the fans would still not boycott it. They all went to Trump's USA for crying outloud.
I couldn't name a single soccer player or one team competing in the World Cup this year, but even I know that FIFA is incredibly, ridiculously corrupt.
"Trying"? Trump made FIFA overturn a red card that the US team got during their match against Bosnia, so now their striker can participate in tomorrow's match. I'd say we're past "trying" here. That's blatant rigging.

What a terrible organization.

Corruption within FIFA? Surely it cannot be!

Why they established a partnership?
$150 million.
Why, yes, it is that simple.

Oh, FIFA, the most clean and above board organization in the world that has never done anything bad? https://media2.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPWE1NzM3M2U1MWxlMzdqY2JiaTlrMXYxZHBpcGwxYXdjbnB1YWtzY2FnazNicTU2ZCZlcD12MV9naWZzX3NlYXJjaCZjdD1n/AaQYP9zh24UFi/200w.webp

FIFA literally gave a pedophile terrorist a peace prize, the fact anyone is still supporting this organization pisses me off
MattLefferts
I wonder who will get the next FIFA Peace Prize?

Thanks for reminding me that I made the right decision in boycotting the cup.

FIFA is a criminal cartel that happens to do a football tournament every now and then

Why is the world ruled by such incestuous losers like infantino and trump and musk?

The refs 100% had prediction bets stating Paraguy would receive zero cards.

Nothing new. A shell company with big money.
In situation like this I always think about this Simpsons episode.

Its killing sports. The corruption is maxxed out, and not only this, but its also rumored to be trying to fix games, and they point

directly at some of their management. Its going to kill off a good chunk of football fandom if they dont clamp down.
