Soccer elites backed a loser with the Super League gamble

We humans can be an extraordinary bunch at times. When there are political scandals, with people who run our countries saying or doing unimaginable things, we often tend to frown and then forget about it. Celebrities do something crazy and, for a little while, that grabs our attention, before the next hot gossip hits the headlines.

However, when soccer elites attempted to mess with the very fabric of our favorite sport recently, it practically caused a meltdown on social networks. Unhappy with already commanding the biggest piece of the financial pie, the owners of Europe’s biggest clubs wanted even more. Branded as the ‘Super League’ and outlined as an entirely new competition, club owners essentially wanted to assert total control.
