The idea of my post is that Brazil will do a fine job staging the World Cup (as will South Africa, when all is said and done), but that it's still a good thing that FIFA have brought an end to a rotation-hosting policy that continually puts rich nations in a patronizing role toward the poor nations whom they allow to host the World Cup.

If the politicians try to get something out of it, or even wet their beaks a little, isn't that what politicians do everywhere? There’s no reason why Brazil can’t stage a great world cup.
