Former CONCACAF president Jack Warner: USMNT elimination was ‘happiest day of my life’

 

Former CONCACAF president Jack Warner wasn’t among those that felt bad for the U.S. Men’s National Team. Rather, he was more than ready to dance on their grave.

The T&T native said Tuesday was the “happiest day of my life” because of the USMNT’s elimination at the hands of his home country. Warner, who was formerly a FIFA vice president, was one of the main targets of the U.S. Department of Justice’s investigations into corruption within the sport and is currently fighting extradition to the U.S.

“They have used their government to help to dismember FIFA in a way that is unimaginable,” Warner said. “And last night on the field of play Trinidad and Tobago reduced them to their knees.

“And for me personally, it has reduced the U.S. to a laughing stock. Last Sept. 27 when the judge ruled against Jack Warner there was a party in the U.S., they were quite happy. Knowing that this has happened I wanted to go out and party as they partied last September when a judge ruled against me. I wanted to party. This was my personal feeling”.

“They will continue to undermine [the World Cup in] Qatar for 2022, but they will not succeed,” he added. “As far as I am concerned this is the beginning of the end for U.S. football. Nobody in CONCACAF likes the U.S.”

  1. Why does anyone report what this criminal says? This charlatan and thief deserves prison and to otherwise be totally ignored by the world.

  2. Sorry the US ended your personal money train. Give the $10 million you took from soccer in your nation so young kids can enjoy soccer, rather than you enjoying stolen money.

    • Do you feel better about yourself by taking this story, which every American can be united in pushing back on, and inserting a completely unnecesssry and divisive political comment into it? You’re a dick.

      • @Old School, I can be all about unity but still call people out for what they are. He made an absurd comment and I called him out on it. You never have problems challenging others who make comments you disagree with so no need to start acting like you’re “holier than thou” now. Get over yourself.

  3. Jack Warner is scum… dropped 40K envelopes into the laps of Caribbean football officials all so he could deliver a bid for Qatar that made him millions of dollars… Interesting that he hates the US so much yet he and Chuck for years profited off of US Soccer and Concacaf for so long…. He only hates because the gravy train got blockaded…

  4. Says a descendant of slaves who bundled Carribean nations votes for the nation of Qatar who uses slave labor practices. All for a few million dollars according to the FBI. He should be ashamed of himself and so should TnT of him.

    • You are a dumbass not all black people were slaves in the Americas. I have Black ancestors from Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Colonial South who were both free and slaves. Do some research on the Melungeons on Tennessee , Kentucky , and Virginia you ignorant shit, tons of free people of color living free in the 1600’s, 1700’s, and 1800’s in the deep racist south.

  5. “Nobody in CONCACAF like the US.” Really? We had no idea! I’ve always wondered why our players are allowed to be consistently roughed up in CONCACAF play with no consequences….
