FIFA Warns Networks to Stop Focusing on Women in World Cup Stands

The head of diversity at FIFA has warned the soccer organization’s broadcasting partners to stop zooming in on “hot women” in the crowd at World Cup matches.

Speaking before yesterday’s match between Croatia and England about FIFA’s anti-discrimination program in Russia, diversity boss Federico Addiechi said eliminating those type of shots is part of the “natural evolution” of broadcasts.

On the contrary, it is way more interesting than the pre-arranged results and endless anti-Americanism the NFL gives us.

Sorry. Soccer doesn't hold a candle to college football, and even the NFL back when they weren't so anti- American.

I went to the Florida-Michigan game last year here in Dallas.

Literally, after a kickoff we waited almost 10 minutes for the first play of the series to happen because of all the TV timeouts. I vowed never again to go to a live football game, especially one that is nationally televised.

That stinks on Ice Megan dear.

You all keep a great house and to come in with absolutely nothing good to say isn't couth or being a welcoming GUEST, because that is what she is in your house a GUEST.

I am sure you gave her a piece of your mind :)

Fellow lifelong Gator here, and I agree that the TV timeouts at games are nonsensical. At least when you're watching from home, you can leave your seat and go get food, go the the bathroom, etc. When I go to games at BHG, it is next to impossible to get out of the stands without a major effort; fans are packed way too tight on those bleachers.

Still .. there is NOTHING (except for pics of hot chicks) that would get me to watch soccer. As usual, the Lefties that run FIFA are killing any reason to watch their boring games.

Despite being a Bayern M fan (went to Munich back in 2003 - first trip to Europe - had no idea at the time about Euro club football, went to a game at Allianz Arena in 2010 or 11, too), I’d like to see Borussia Dortmund or someone else win next year. It gets a bit boring when Bayern always has a 10+ pt lead in the second half of the season. I don’t have an EPL team, but most of my friends are Arsenal or Liverpool fans.

Of course with the Gators the last few years, this hasn’t been a problem, but here in Big 12 country, there have been a lot of games where the scores resemble basketball scores, and I can’t stand those games. Oh, there’s a touchdown, big deal, there’s going to be 10 more!

What I like about soccer is that the big moment can come at any time. Nowadays, I pretty much just watch the fourth quarter of football games, because that’s where the vast majority are going to be decided anyway.

Yeah, I chose Everton, because it was just too easy to pick one of the big four. It’s actually hard to be a fan, of say, Bayern Munich or FC Barcelona, because even if you win your domestic league, your season’s a disappointment if you don’t win Champions League.

With Everton, if we just make Europa League, I’m thrilled.

LOL, I remember when I was at UF, all the students would head to the Purple Porpoise for “Kamikaze Halftime”, then stumble back into the stadium in the middle of the third quarter.

Good times!

It's getting hard to tell the difference between the advocates of "diversity" and old-school prudes.

As Rush said many years ago, the real purpose of feminism: "Feminism Was Established So As To Allow Unattractive Women Easier Access To The Mainstream Of Pop Culture"
