Corrupt, maybe. But not even close. Not even in the ballpark.

When the NFL puts the Super Bowl in the Middle East and makes slaves build them a one time use facility for $5B, and says no booze or gays and keep the cheerleaders at home, then we can talk.

The funny thing is you say that like it's not just a few years off. LIV and the NFL have a massive overlap of target audience. Without the massive TV deal they get, they'd be schilling to the middle east in a second.

 

I'd bet that's what the hangup is getting Bezos to bid on the Commanders, conflict of interest with the Amazon streaming deal.

Not to be outdone by their decision to use Visit Saudi as a sponsor for the Womens World Cup, FIFA has appointed a former Victoria's Secret Model to be their Global Fan Ambassador.

Is FIFA so obtuse that they would bring on the official tourism program of Saudi Arabia "Visit Saudi " as a sponsor for the upcoming Womens World Cup?

Surprisingly FIFA has reversed course and won't be bringing on Visit Saudi for the Womens World Cup

Yeah I watched that match. Really sad as she has been our best striker of late scoring goals almost at will. Sucks she'll miss the WC.

To be fair to the ladies side the U20 CONCACAF Championship is ongoing and we are kicking everyones buts thus far. 20 minutes in against the Canadians and already up 2-0. I don't follow the women's youth program at all but I suspect they will waltz to the trophy in this one.

Ladies win their group just like the Men side. 3 matches and 3 wins. Well done ladies!
