Think of four major global companies. Good. Now imagine that all those companies just told Sepp Blatter to sit the F down. No need for imagination today, because that's exactly what happened.

In a quick succession, Coca Cola, McDonalds, VISA, and Budweiser all released press emails calling for the resignation of Blatter.

Coca Cola and McDonalds were the first to strike, and Blatter's team wasn't too shy to respond. Unsurprisingly, they refused to back down:

VISA joined in:

But perhaps Budweiser dropped one of the biggest teasers of all:

First, Budweiser confirmed that the calls to action were a coordinated effort. Second, they implied that Adidas, who has yet to say anything, soon may be involved in demanding Blatter's resignation. Just imagine if the soccer giant put the hammer down. Maybe that would cripple old Joseph.
