Sepp Blatter resigns.

This is ten minutes old at most, I think - anyone have good links?

Full statement. He wants to be the one to drive the reforms that other people always prevented him from making, which he cannot do if he's president. *headdesk* Huh, I thought he was the one person who advanced football so much for the whole planet?

( a lot of pictures not much news, well that's the idea )

( if I knew you were coming I'd have baked you a cake, how de do how de do? If I knew you were coming, I'd have hired a band, the best in the land )

( you got my body now you want my soul, don't think about it say no go, I'll do anything that you want me toooo yeah, do almost any thing but I can't go for that. )

( one left low/left two who left high/they seem so hard to find )

( *yawns* it's early, and I missed the matches, so in a way, this is going to be a surprise to me. So um... if I cry over the results do not judge me )

( Before we get into this post: an unreserved apology to the comm for the comment re: Ronaldo yesterday. I was out of line regarding the DV comment, and I am sorry for the fact that it seemed the subject of DV was taken lightly. )

( It took me close to an hour to translate all of this due to its length, but I urge everyone to click the link and take the time to read. It really is incredibly interesting. LOTS of receipts under the cut, as well! I wanted this to be as complete and informative as possible )
