Jeremy Schaap is doing a report on FIFA and Sepp Blatter tonight. It should be interesting.

Will it depict him a kleptocratic and corrupt gasbag? If not, then I am not interested.

Schaap's report on Qatar's conditions in the lead up to the World Cup last year brought that news to forefront and, for at least a moment, there was some hope that things would change.

Hopefully, he brings the hammer on Blatter tonight and it gets more people talking again.

I was listening to the World Soccer Talk podcast this morning and they kept saying 7 pm Eastern and ESPN's Web site says 7 pm Eastern. The podcast made it seem like it would focus on the FIFA corruption under Blatter. I guess we'll see.

No worries, just wanted to give that heads up to those without a DVR. Don't know why, but my Dish programming guide on the TV says it comes on at 7 and I'm in Nola. Maybe it was moved?

I hope it's on at 6 ... I'll only miss the first 30 minutes of tonight's LSU baseball game.

Well ESPN lost the bid to the world cup, then watched as FIFA gave fox the next one without even letting anyone bid. So ya I expect them to go balls deep into Blatter.

Maybe Dish just tarded out. I'll make sure I DVR the 6 o'clock show also just to be safe.

So far is it is so good. This shite sucks so much.

ETA: All of y'all should be watching. Schaap is doing a great job so far.

He was just compared to Santa Claus.

Andorra gets as much money as Spain, Trinidad and Tobago get as much as the USSF and Bolivia get as much as Brazil from the World Cup. Shouldn't teams in the tournament get more than teams who will never make it?

God that pissed me off so much. I can't believe we'll be stuck with this fascist frick again after the election.

He will win and the game we all love could be at a much higher level than it is. He is an egomaniac and should be stopped. So much money promised to make the world a better place, ends up in the hands of people who don't give a frick.

I am infuriated. Can any person really say that 2018 in Britain and 2022 in either the USA or Australia wouldn't have been better choices for the actual tournaments and better for the fans?

There's got to be something people can do. There's no other recourse that can be taken by the fans?

I guess ESPN wasn't too happy about not being allowed to bid on the 2026 World Cup.
