        Which is exactly why all western democracies should boycott this event. We are all under attack by Putin.

        I got a few paragraphs in and then it occured to me this is an agenda piece. FIFA is the most corrupt organization maybe ever, to imply Russia is the only country ever to make payoffs to FIFA is irresponsible and transparent.

        You know that, you did that same in 1994 and are trying to host 2026 World Cup shared with Mexico and Canada. Too many teams for a North America that doesn't knows what's winning a trophy.
