Never Mind: FIFA's Sepp Blatter Resigns After 17 years

Less than a week after being re-elected for a fifth term as head of the governing body of world soccer, Sepp Blatter announced in Zurich yesterday that he will resign.  The New York Times provides thorough coverage.

“FIFA needs a profound restructuring,” Blatter is quoted as saying. Referring to his re-election, he then added, “Although the members of FIFA have given me the new mandate, this mandate does not seem to be supported by everybody in the world of football.” 

You think?
