Problem though is that there is a perception that the arrests of those FIFA officals is being done because the USA LOST the bid to HOST either 2018 or 2022. That's certainly what Blatter (and Putin, for that matter) are trying to make people believe. But the fact is, everyone knows these guys are dirty. The fans are all cheering the US on. But the crooks in charge will stick together and maintain the fiction so that they continue to profit from the status quo.

Are sure that the general fanship of FIFA is cheering this, because remember, most Americans do not care for soccer.
