Imagine this man runs for president and i ignore his excellent antecedents, then proceed to vote for Orji Uzor Kalu cos he's from my tribe.
Of what use is my education, exposure and enlightenment?
It was actually #198 in owerri that morning.
This actually makes more sense.
How I would fix the Ballon d'Or:
- Ceremony at the end of July
It's a season based award so it makes no sense for it to be held in October when the new season has already began.
- Top 10 instead of top 30
30 nominees is way too much it just creates confusion and it feels like slop. The 10 best players of the season makes it more prestigious and easier to decide.
- Voting in the middle of the season and at the end
It's difficult for most people to remember performances form a 10 month period so have a vote in December/January and in June/July with the 2nd part of the season being double points or 1.5x.
- Clear criteria
It feels like everyone votes based on their own version of what the Ballon d'Or should be...
1. Eye test
2. Trophies/achievements
3. Importance for the team/big game performances
- Less voters
Have a selected amount of people who genuinely watch the games and are qualified to have a valuable opinion instead of random journalists from each country that watch 2 games a year.
If you had the attention span to read this, you are already more qualified than most people voting for this award right now ❤️
That’s how you guys will leave a loyal woman and end up with the one that drains you, takes 50% of your net worth, while she makes you pay child support for kids you’ll hardly see.
This had better be a joke.

Every single player that campaigned for the Balon D’or eventually lost and the one player who never campaigned WON it.
Poetic justice!
