It's all out civil war at the top of world football.
On the day FIFA, the sport's global governing body cleared Qatar and Russia of alleged corruption in bidding for the World Cup, the man who led the investigation has hit back.
Michael Garcia, the man who spent 18 months scrutinizing the bids to host the 2018 and 2022 tournaments, has labeled FIFA's findings on his report "incomplete and erroneous."

FIFA has all the credibility of an NCAA investigation into an SEC QB.

In related news, Qatar tells gays to stay home and not attend the next World Cup.

Any bets on whether the US or some other countries will be skipping the 2022 World Cup out of protest? Soccer is pretty gay, after all.

If alcohol isn't allowed, I expect the Republic of Ireland will be skipping it.

We really want to not suck at that at least once. The Irish can live off the liquor reserves in their livers.
