Given the proper amount of political backing, I could run an international organization with more member nations than the UN

FIFA President Sepp Blatter has announced that he is open to adding additional referees in order to speed up the pace of the game, and to cut down on diving, theatrics, and reckless fouls that have been oft-criticized at this past World Cup.

I don't know if I want to say "I told you so," but I seem to recall making this suggestion two weeks ago.

"Tactics that call for and teams that embrace diving (cough cough Italy) have no place in the game. However, I wouldn't go so far as to say the refs are retarded and can't tell the difference. There simply just aren't enough of them to call the game correctly...In soccer, there is only 1 ref, and only 2 linesmen (whose job is not to call fouls) to enforce the laws of the game in between 22 players on a 75 x 110-yard field...Even the addition of one extra ref would likely see a dramatic decrease in diving."

So who wants to back my candidacy to take over FIFA after Blatter steps down?

I don't know if "I told you so" is in order since nobody reads the crappity crap shit that you write about soccer.

Sever, I wouldn't support your candidacy to take over a flippin' hot dog stand.

By the way, how was Foghat? Did you enjoy "Slow Ride"? Oh, and did they also play "Slow Ride"? I bet they closed with "Slow Ride," right?

Damn right they closed with "Slow Ride." It was free. It was on the second stage on Naperville Central's baseball field and it fuckin' rocked.
