FIFA Presidential Elections: Something Fishy

Following a week of allegations and corruption scandals, football's governing body FIFA held elections today for their most powerful position.

The incumbent, Sepp Blatter, was poised to run against Qatari football chief Mohamed Bin Hammam, until the FIFA Ethics Committee's slap on the wrist forced Bin Hammam to remove himself from the running (see his humble quote posted below.)

Without competition, it appears as if nothing stands in the way of Blatter's pursuit to continue his 13-year run at the helm, and in doing so, reduce the world's softwood lumber reserves and the colour cartridges in FIFA's Epson 1000.



Best wishes to FIFA in their long-term plan to become the world's most corrupt entity.

UPDATE:

Blatter has upset his main rival, himself, in winning a 4th term as President of FIFA.

Rumour has it the 2026 World Cup will either be hosted by Qatar, again, or Mars, who have sent delegates to Blatter's home in Zurich to convince him of the viability of having a World Cup take place in a tropical, zero gravity environment.
