Blatter is almost 80, give it a break already. Time for someone younger.

Blatter is like the Hugo Chavez of the sports world. Leave the post to others, already! How come old men never know when to quit? It's like they become little mini-Caesars after a few years in power and just have to keep ruling. Kick him out.

Pieth said in the above article: other hopefuls to lead FIFA were “waiting in the bushes” to run in the future. Too bad some younger people couldn't get in the race to head FIFA now. Would like to see France's Michel Platini get a chance to run the big show. Seems that if Platini does make it to the top, he will be up there in years age-wise, too, due to a long wait.
