LOL too. yes for my friends and family it IS a capital offence hehe. ok it's an expensive sport but the main reason I don't like football (not the only one reason) is that it makes so much money in South America, so much money that could have been used to fight poverty, children malnutrion, crime, low, embarrasing low rates of literacy and the list go on... when the best peruvian footballers play in Europe for some european teams they play great, but when they play for our country the play terribly. and by the way, they eat, travel, get women etc.. WITH THE MONEY I PAY IN TAXES FOR THE NATIONAL SPORT FEDERATION.
corruption rules , not only in politics.

It is no coincidence that those flyboard championships were held in Qatar of course as oil money does a lot to lubricate the wheels of very expensive hobbies (and that is one for sure when a support boat as well as high spec. equipment have to be provided to make it all happen).
The current argument is whether players can withstand the summer heat there for the World Cup Championships but a revised winter timetable will disrupt all the home games' schedules (to which lucrative tv rights are attached of course)
Btw, RIP Usebijo - from a different continent I know but a great credit to the game in his day.
