Jack Warner (no, not Dixon of Dock Green; the ex-VP of FIFA being charged with corruption) posted a rant in his defence on Facebook, then edited it to remove part of it.
The removed section showed him holding up this article http://www.theonion.com/article/fifa-fr ... up-u-50525 from the Onion, a satirical Web magazine. The bloke seriously believed the "Olympic final of the World Cup" was going to start that day.

You can tell he's a really keen follower of football.

It's a bit of a laborious listen so skip to 5:00 if you just want to witness his gaffe.

Only worry is that the evidence against the likes of Warner has mostly come from Chuck Blazer who appears to have confessed all to the FBI to get himself off. Given that he was paying for two New York apartments on expenses and claimed that one was for his cats I'm not sure how well his account will hold up in court.
