No Futbol for you 

I'm sure most of you don't care about this, but it's related to international soccer which means it caught my eye. FIFA (world soccer governing body) has banned Kenya from all competitions and exhibitions. Apparently the Kenyans have a corrupt football association. Again, I can't imagine that this matters to anyone outside of Kenya, but imagine for a second if all professional sports in a nation ceased to be. It's not like this is a country that thrives on industry and entertainment. I believe this will affect their collective psyche in a harmful way. No doubt they'll still be playing soccer in Nairobi. They just won't be playing with anybody.
