FIFA reform task force to be headed by man who was IOC director general between 1989 and 2003... Ie.. When the Salt Lake City bribery allegations were ongoing. I'm sure he will fit in perfectly at FIFA.

This was Blatter's first news conference since he announced his decision to step down from his role at the beginning of June amid the corruption scandal that has rocked world football's governing body.

Blatter said he would leave the room because "we have to clean here first."

"This has nothing to do with football," said Blatter, who returned within a few minutes and quipped about the incident.

"I just called my late mother and she said, 'Don't worry, it's just a lack of education,"' he said.

[RedAndWhite]

Waived his right ?


Sounds like he's made a deal ....


These guys are sooooo ****ed .

the trick is to be the first to squeal - and it looks like a few have gotten there first - it will be interesting to see how far this spreads. I wonder if other jurisdictions will start to follow up on any of this as more information comes to light?
