Warner is a power broker crook…..but so is Sepp and the rest of FIFA. World Cup in the Middle East in July? What moron thought that was a good idea? And Russia over sites like Chicago? Please. The FIFA leadership was bought. Everyone knows it.

If you show the new $100 bill beforehand isn’t that counterproductive to counterfeiting?

He could have delivered his promised “football tsunami,” napalming his way out the door by implicating virtually every high-flier in international soccer.

How awesome would this be?

Aside from the proposals that have the stadiums magically creating clouds that will hover over the stadium, regardless of wind. I can’t wait to see that FAIL.

Innovation.

Ha. I didn’t know CONCACAF actually pays Warner rent on a building he purchased with dirty money. Now that’s awesome.

So have there been any new developments on the stadiums for the world cup in Qatar?

When I read his name I think of the Colonel from Boogie Nights. Can anyone offer an explanation?

Don’t drown your sorrows in whiskey and gin for “the Honorable” Jack Warner, however. He’ll be taking his talents to Trinidadian politics. Warner is presently Trinidad and Tobago’s Minister of Works and Transport. So, yes, every time someone wants the contract for a public works project in Trinidad and Tobago. They have to go through him.

Seems about right.

Jack Warner gains points for making a “ask your mother” joke, that was funny.
