FIFA’s stupidity on the big screen

FIFA should embrace technology because right now it’s making fools of them. Yesterday there was the England none-goal, which although irrelevant to the final score was so far across the line it would have made a truthful man out of a fisherman. Then there was the Argentina goal – the referee and the linesman stood on the line discussing what was ultimately the wrong decision while their incompetence and embarrassment was being played out on the screens around the stadium.

There are little cameras in the back of the goal which only serve to make clowns out of the officials – and more of a clown out of Blatter – and to amuse the crowd, but never to make a coherent decision or achieve justice. The cameras are there because football is addicted to television money – just like Blatter.
