    He wants to die doing the job. It's the only way he can keep the skeletons in the closet.
    The moment he steps down the investigation will begin.
    Dirty, corrupt bastard.

    Here is the best example of why all elections to higher office should require TERM LIMITS. of no more than 4 years.

    FAIRNESS. One needs to be fair to the others waiting in the wings to show what they can accomplish.

    This allows the next person in line to come in, take office, steal, and line his or her pockets with everything they can too.

    Blatter reminds me of that other poison dwarf, Bernie Ecclestone. A man who is on a corruption charge and attempting to deflect it by saying he was blackmailed, but THAT person is already in prison for accepting a bribe. You couldn't make it up lol
    And BE runs FOM (Formula One Management)
