    And by the way, the USA hosted the World Cup in 1994.

    True but Mexico hosted 2 World Cups in a 16 year span, 1970 and 1986.

    It's about time we got another one too, don't you think? They don't often come to this region and no CONMEBOL countries DO NOT COUNT in my book. CONCACAF and CONMEBOL are 2 SEPERATE ZONES with COMPLETELY different styles of football.

    mexico only hosted 86 because colombia couldn't host it.

    russia is a decent footballing choice, but qatar is terrible.

    nine stadiums within 40 miles of each other built by slave labour then dismantled after the world cup. their team has south americans paid to take qatari citizenship then play for them and they've never done anything of note in footballing terms. coming from FIFA though it shouldnt really be a surprise. sepp blatter wants a nobel peace prize.
