Fifa still the answer tho the Olympics ain’t much better at the moment. Historically, yeah I’ll give it to the Olympics. There have been some questionable host sites

It probably makes business sense for them too - if FIFA gobbles up all the bribes, how are the IOC members going to fund their yachts? Think about their children! They have to take a firm stance and stand for the true spirit of the organisation, unbridled corruption, as set out in the Olympic motto: “SWIFT; Hired, by strongmen”
