After surviving corruption crises, Olympics and soccer move to let presidents stay longer in power

When the Olympic movement and international soccer lived through very public corruption crises, both agreed to limit the terms of their presidents in an effort to protect them in the future. All are on track now to roll back the policy. They agreed to limit presidents to 12 years in office to help curb power cliques but those rules now faces pushback. The IOC and European soccer body UEFA are moving toward letting their presidents have at least 15 years in the top job. Anti-corruption adviser Mark Pieth says the trend is not healthy for sports.
