Oh, how could I blame anyone? But I get that too in the States. For some reason, the announcing team they used for their South Africa broadcast was even more disgusting.

It's not even a question about judging what leagues are worth watching and praising. It's that it demeans the actual sport itself -- turning EPL team opponents into mere, dispensable actors for our enjoyment. The viewer is insulted and appreciation of the actual sport of it is flipped on its head.

An EPL club scores a goal and it's, "Oh, that's the stuff Arsenal needed! Surely they are in command!" A non-EPL club scores a goal and it's, "That will make it harder for Arsenal now. Surely they could have defended that better." It's like the other club doesn't even exist.

Were you watching the game on supersport? It must have been Gary Bailey & Terry Paine as usual.

People in this country and on here continue to confuse the Premier League with English football.

WTF is Blatter on about bringing religion into it.

Hey , I have a question .
Does fifa give some money to the hosting country ?

 

[Byrone]

They give money to the respective national federation after the tournament. I'm not sure if they give money before the tournament.

 

[CORVETTE]

Aha , do you know how much ?

 

[Byrone]

Every WC will have different figures. It's all based on television revenue, sponsors & ticket sales.

Brazil will most probably make significantly more than SA made because of various factors. Brazil is a very popular holiday destination & their national team probably has the biggest fan base outside of Brazil.Also the recession had a major impact of the profit for the 2010 WC, so everything should be stable come 2014.

Talking about monies, Zidane got paid 15 mil for supporting Qatar's bid

Do you really need to ask me that sort of question?

15 million! Surely if you really support a bid you do it for free.

 

[K.O.]

For 15 million, I'd support Mars's bid to host the world cup.

 

[JuveJay]

Well yeah exactly.

Is it the video with the black guy? I can't access the video but i've seen a rant with a black american. Stupid mofo he is.

 

[K.O.]

Yeah, it's the black guy

 

[Seven]

He's pretty funny . I mean.. he honestly doesn't get it.

And a lot of his objections are true. But I don't understand his conclusion. Why does it mean we all hate America?

Wow, a black Andy
