Yeah, a different tune will be sung when the '22 WC is held in November/December because "cloud machines" still won't exist. Nor A/C working in an open air stadium.

You mean the most profitable and best attended World Cup ever even accounting for the fact that there were less teams and thus less games?

That American World Cup?

Man if the world cup came back to England and it didn't turn out to be the most profitable for FIFA I would probably shoot myself

It's funny to me, that all Americans inherit the idea of "bigger" being the equivalent of "improved quality".

The only thing worse than the American attempt at hosting a World Cup was Atlanta '96. That was shameful.

Life, friends, is boring

quote:

Chances are, if you’re a woman and you’ve had much contact with the leadership of FIFA, you have a story to tell about sexism and soccer’s world governing body.

U.S. forward Abby Wambach tells one from the time she and her now-wife, Sarah Huffman, were backstage in a VIP room in January 2013 before the World Player of the Year awards gala in Zurich, Switzerland. “[FIFA president] Sepp Blatter came into our little area, and he walked straight up to Sarah and thought she was [Brazilian star] Marta,” says Wambach.

“Marta!” Blatter said, hugging a bewildered Huffman, who doesn't look much like Marta. “You are the best! The very best!”

“He had no idea who Marta was, and she’s won the award five times,” says Wambach. “For me, that’s just a slap in the face because it shows he doesn’t really care about the women’s game.”

Solid, Sepp.
