The one thing Kavitha Davidson gets right

Normally, I find Bloomberg's top sports writer pretty awful.  Kavitha doesn't dwell on the actual games, or the stories inside them that focus on the bright side of sports.  No, she only pontificates on how misogynist the players are, how unfair the leagues treat the unions, or whatever other progressive agenda needs to be shown the limelight to Bloomberg's readers.  However, I do think she takes the right stance on Qatar's bid for the 2022 World Cup to be re-opened in the wake of the FIFA bribery arrests.  

Many agree that if FIFA is serious about transparency and reform, its next president must take a stand against a country that jails journalists reporting on World Cup construction abuses and its kafala system of labor, which amounts to modern-day slavery. Too bad that many of the front-runners to succeed Blatter were just as supportive of Qatar's bid.

I also agree with her that its likely too late to do anything about the Russian bid, even if they find some serious stuff there.  The logistics just won't allow it, without even taking into regard the geo-political ramifications of a US lead investigation removing a symbolic games from the Russians.  Qatar poses its own issues, but with the years to be able to build the case, and the overall issues with safety, weather, and the whole slave labor issue the case should easily be made to revoke their hosting.
