Two days after becoming the face of soccer corruption, disgraced FIFA President Sepp Blatter said Thursday he has already started working on ways to clean up the sport's governing body. Blatter, who announced his decision to resign on Tuesday as the FIFA corruption crisis continues to build and spread around the world, tweeted a photo of himself sitting in a leather chair with a light blue jacket and no tie. ''Working hard on reforms after meeting Audit & Compliance Committee Independent Chairman Scala,'' Blatter wrote, along with a link to a statement released by FIFA.
