Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFIFA's governing structure is comprised of a President, a General Secretary, a Congress with representatives from each affiliated member association and an assortment of committees including that of Finance, Disciplinary, and Referees. The Congress meets every year to discuss the association's implementation, with each member association accorded one vote irrespective of its size or its footballing strength. FIFA also recognizes six confederations that oversee the sport across the world's different continents and regions. Interestingly, FIFA has more member states than the United Nations, as it also recognizes non-sovereign entities and politically disputed territories like Palestine. The association does not control the rules of football, but is in charge of enforcing sanctions, such as the suspension of players or teams if they interfere with the proper functioning of the sport.
Featured review
You know you're dealing with a psychopath Blatter when he could smirk at every horrible event/deed - even if he's not personally involved in it, the nonchalance is chilling. And if he isn't, and he wasn't aware of any wrongdoings, the fact that things were happening right under his nose and he's ignorant of them all makes you question what kind of a leader he was.
And "I like the question" + smirk when asked about abuses and deaths of foreign workers in Qatar. Goodness. ICYMI, this is the same guy who's reported to have ambitions to win the Nobel Peace Prize via FIFA.
Perhaps what needs more probing is our unquestioning psyche. There are many corrupted and immoral institutions in the world, FIFA is hardly the only one, yet most of us keep letting it recur, turn a blind eye as long as we could consume something nice. Worse, once we sense that we could benefit from a corruption, we will potentially turn to the dark side in the blink of an eye. But I think as long as money is regarded as the only thing of true value in most societies, I'm not optimistic anything will ever change.
