Chuck Blazer
Soccer executive, “whistleblower,” Pirate Santa Claus.
April 26, 1945 – July 12, 2017.
Aged 72 years.

Most recognized for: FIFA & CONCACAF bigwig turned IRS & FBI informant, this wire-wearing bitch-boy exposed the shady dealings of international pro soccer’s governing bodies. As it turns out, he & his fellow FIFA honchos would accept million$ in bribes to sway their decision on where a ball gets kicked back & forth for a yawn-worthy 90 minutes. Money well spen’t.
