    Apparently soccer is offensive even though I grew up in AYSO. i got in the habit of calling them association football and gridiron football, respectively.

    I thought the corruption of the leagues and the fanatcism of the US is bad and scary. Then I learned about FIFA. i had no idea.

      FIFA is not European, just because its headquarters are there.

      The kind of corruption you see there is more typical of South America. And it was a Brazilian who took it from yet another sport to the scale it is now.
