    World Cup hosting announcements tomorrow for 2018 and 2022 cups ...

    Russia supposedly the favorite over a bunch of European countries for 2018.

    Qatar a favorite over Australia, the US, Japan and South Korea for 2022.

    Qatar? Really?

    They did it out of um.

    yeah


    I don't know. I think it'll be interesting and definitely draw an audience, if not only to see how it goes. Maybe that's what they were thinking too.

    Edit: And as far as reviving the sport here, I really think it's a lost cause. Beckham couldn't even save us....... BECKHAM

    Yeah there will be AC in Stadiums, and let's face it the only reason Qatar got it is because they have 100 billion dollars just for this.

    High end soccer is 95~ % about money, after all.

    I'm sure the AC plan will work out flawlessly. Uh-huh.

    I think it's also like illegal to be publicaly intoxicated there too. I'm sure it's only a minor offence, like ripping off your dick, so should be ok. Weee.

    Something about the stadiums are going to be deconstructed after the tournament as well.

    Worst world cup venue ever.
