Listen Later

Sometimes the most revealing moment isn't the scandal. It's the sentence that never gets said.

On June 2, 2015, FIFA president Sepp Blatter walked into a press conference in Zurich just four days after winning his fifth consecutive presidential election and announced he was stepping down, without ever using the word resign.
