Qatar beat out The United States of America, and four other countries, to get the 2022 World Cup Soccer game. CNN's Max Kellerman is reporting that the vote on this was delayed due to allegations of corruption.
In Atlanta, Mayor Kaseem Reed, heading a watch party here, is just plain stunned. He's set to give an announcement.
Kellerman says that "It's interesting that you see petro-dollars, you see the World Cup."
On CNN, Max went off making charges of FIFA voting corruption.
Stay tuned
It's interesting that you see petro-dollars, you see American soldiers.
ReplyDeleteNot surprised Qatar won the bid. Money talks. And they have so freakin much of it. The bitter side of me hopes their air conditioning breaks in the stadiums in the 120 F heat; hate to have to answer for that!
