Gulati on Blazer in 2010 Shows Flynn's Senate Testimony to Be a Bit Misleading

In the Senate hearing on FIFA earlier this week, US Soccer CEO and General Secretary Dan Flynn (pictured above conferring with legal cousel at the hearing) tried to distance USSF from Blazer: " Flynn said Blazer had not been involved with U.S. Soccer since 1986."

I am sure that the phrase "involved with" can be parsed many ways, but the following excerpts from a 2010 SBD article (excellent reporting) about Blazer at the peak of his powers, tells a somewhat different story.

US Soccer plays US Senators for fools at some risk.
