Should We Boycott Qatar 2022?
I remember being in the streets of Doha the day in 2010 when it was announced that Qatar would be hosting the FIFA World Cup in 2022. It seems so long ago now. I was out and about as it was announced over the radio that they had won their bid. It was getting dark. Within minutes of the announcement, the streets were flooded with cars honking and celebrating. Qatari flags sprung up everywhere! People were ecstatic that their nation was going to be hosting one of the biggest sporting events in the world. So much happiness, so much celebration, so much pride.

Reece James Gets Robbed
It was meant to be another great night in the Champions League for Reece James and his Chelsea colleagues. While a dire first half had the fans at Stamford Bridge scratching their heads, Romelu Lukaku made up for it in the second forty-five with a well headed goal in the 69th minute. It was to be the only goal in a game that never really got going, however Thomas Tuchel and his charges would welcome a winning start as they attempted to defend their European crown. Offensively, it was a rather worrying display, while at the back it was another solid performance by the London side.

Greatest Goal - FIFA Vs. Pro Evolution Soccer
Hi, and welcome back to The Great Debates, where only the true all-stars get the cup. Whether it's referred to as soccer here in the U.S. or as football everywhere else in the world, it inspires passion like no other sport can. Soccer riots are just the tip of the iceberg. If you think the passionate debate is limited to the pitch in the real world, you are very much mistaken. Soccer video games get debated just as fiercely. While Sony, Midway, and SNK among others have taken their own stabs at soccer video games, in the eyes of the world, there are only two contenders for the World Cup. They are EA's FIFA series and Konami's Pro Evolution series.
