I think this is FIFA's actual play in the whole thing if you ask me. Whitewash the entire ethics investigation so they don't have to pay back the bribes or admit wrong doing. But then, when the professional leagues refuse to release the players, and they won't, ever, FIFA can then blame the clubs as an excuse to move…

"Nah we don't care"

They play the World Cup in the middle of the MLS season and it didnt seem to have an effect on the level of play there, so I don't see the difference...

So much evil in this picture. If they sold "Extract of Evil" in the store, this is the picture they'd slap on the bottle.

Yeah, this is what I really question. Are leagues just going to agree to pause, or are we going to have to watch an amateur world cup? Cause WE COULD TOTALLY WIN AN AMATEUR WORLD CUP !

Qatar Football Federation Representative: [enters FIFA Ethics Committee chamber] I've been asked to drop off the report post-haste.

I'm sure it doesn't take 2 years to learn how to fire it, but my point is that it isn't something they could just grab and figure out on their own. Russians participated in this event.

By the way, It doesn't take two years to learn a weapons system. Unless you count bootcamp and (at least in the US military) A school. It only took me 2 months boot camp, 4 months A school and 18 days SWIG 1 A training to be qualified to launch nuke tomahawks from my ship. A 'TS' crypto clearance helped as well.

Exactly, it takes training to use this weapon system effectively. I'm not saying rebels stole the system. I'm saying this system was provided by the Russians to their operatives, but they (the operatives) had limited training with it. It was an unfortunate mistake. Still people died.

On the topic of pilots,I have an article about top 3 "almost" crash landings by pilots. I am an aviation fan myself,starting to do my law degree next year hoping to become an Aviation Lawyer actually. Any possibility of getting posting rights ?

lol that cute little goat, trying to climb up on that thing...aww, it gave up and it's coming towards the camerOHMYGODTHOSECREEPYFUCKINGSATANEYES

The knee-jerk support for Israel from some Jewish people has always been disturbing to me. During one of the many conflicts between Israel and Palestine, a Jewish woman said that when her kids complained about their first-world problems she would tell them to think about the children suffering in Israel. And I…

Ok, so even if accepting the premise that Real is the best team in the world, which is also debatable as they came in 3rd in their league and didn't even play for their league tournament championship, this article's premise is still valid. How? Let me explain:

1. sharing something is different from writing it. just pushed it over to the main site

Cool, so we don't have to cry for them this time?

God, such a silly silly comment. No way that's Dwyane Wade.

Fellow Detroiter here: If my girlfriend was waaaaay out of my league, and I hadn't gotten laid once in the four years she was off banging other guys, yeah, I might take her back.

Add Will Ferrell as a competing southern ex-NFL coach and I'd watch an entire movie of that.
