FIFA’s ultra-dumb president, Sepp Blatter, is in in the headlines for the wrong reason… again. He is to soccer as Mr. Bush is to politics. How the hell has he kept his job for so long? It must take skill… for this I applaud you, Mr. Blatter! Few weeks ago, he commented on the ongoing Cristiano Ronaldo transfer saga, saying that he was a “slave” at Manchester United and he should let him go. Sir Alex kept silent, but finally hit back at Sepp Blatter for such unkempt comment. This comment was wrong in so many ways:
- Slavery should not be referred to publicly by a person of such high standing in such a casual manner, since wars have been fought and lives have been lost over the matter. Black footballers and various media have censured Blatter’s reference to slavery.
- Contracts between footballers and clubs are not slavery contracts. In fact, “slavery contracts” is in itself an oxymoron because slaves did not get a contract. While the head of world football should be telling immature footballists to learn how to respect their contracts, Blatter did just the opposite.
- Bribes and corruption are possibilities now arisen, since really, just for the reasons above, Blatter should have never said anything like that.
Blatter have said some ridiculous things before, such as suggesting that women footballers wear “tighter shorts” for an increased visual appeal. As a member of the male sex, I can assure you it may just make me watch a couple of games on Women’s World Cup, but still! FIFA’s president should not be uttering those comments, just like Mr. Bush should learn how to say nucular properly! (I mean, nuclear!)
What is up with this world and stupid leaders…..?!?!?!
Note: I have found a very similar article to this one right here… you should check it out.

I am pretty sure you have mispronounced many words in your life time Mr. Alex. However, you are one of the lucky ones who doesn’t have the watchful eye of millions on you every second of the day like “Mr. Bush” (actually, President Bush to you Mr. Alex).

I respect your opinion, and I respect “President Bush” as a leader who has led America through hard times. The mispronunciation is just one of the things I like to poke fun at.
However, I do really think he has started unnecessary wars and brought unnecessary deaths and chaos especially in the Middle East. Perhaps this was the only way to go about it, but I firmly believe that there had to be a better way.
And this post really was about badmouthing Blatter, not Bush.
