I don't see Nashville making the cut but I also didn't think we'd get an MLS team. I'd prefer attending a single WC match to a lifetime of opportunities to see geriatric legends.
If Atlanta is a lock, won’t that make it really hard to put another one in Nashville, just 250 miles away? What’s the criteria that will be used to determine which cities get games and who will make that decision?
Yes. I imagine current backing of soccer as shown by attendance numbers, accessibility for large crowds, stadia quality, ease of travel - airports, rail, drive.
Wonder if the Egyptian defenders brought their mace spray to keep Suarez from chomping down on them today? And that stadium they are playing in is pathetic. The scaffolding seats on the end lines is incredibly bad looking.
Our definitions of exciting are different. If I wanted to watch a league with parity I'd watch the Bundesliga. Er, La Liga. No...
The race for champions league will be exciting. There’s not a lot of difference between 2-5 and maybe 6-7 could sneak up there
