Around a bit for games, so more people get a chance to see them play live. The US likes playing in California, so I assume they will do LA, but will they travel them all the way to New York for a game in the group stages?

So does each country get an automatic bid?

Isn't that yet to be decided? Don't think FIFA has said

3 auto bids from CONCACAF would tick off those teams trying to make it.

No. It'll be a 48 team tournament

Normally yes, but we've never had 3 teams host before. Not sure if all 3 will be

With how our the USSF works, we'll play in the areas where we have the least

They really shouldn't. They should stick to the eastern seaboard.

I hope not. Brazil handled this poorly in 2014, IMO, and I hope we don't repeat

Give the US the Chicago, Kansas City, Dallas corridor for their games...

Since Chicago is out, maybe Denver or Cincinnati?

SpiffCoug

Chicago is already out as a host city, right? KC is far too hot.

Nathanael Greene

6/13/18 9:00am

I hope neither KC or Dallas is selected, both cities are way too hot. I'd prefer

Dallas is fine because it will be inside.

Nathanael Greene

6/13/18 9:06am

Will FIFA allow the games to be played inside? It looks like all the domed

chilango

6/13/18 9:27am

Shoot, I hadn't followed to see that Chicago was out. Lame decision.

Tokolosh

Well, someone had to be left out to accommodate Cinci and Baltimore lol

Chicago withdrew.

Ugh. It's nasty hot there in the summer. That's one place I won't be going to

chilango

Good. The fewer people that come to our amazing city, the better.

Sorry, didn't realize you lived there. No offense, it's just too hot for soccer

chilango

6/13/18 10:35am

I actually think the heat is a bit of an advantage for the US against UEFA teams

I think it's an advantage vs CONMEBOL as well. Most of their World Cup players

Play the games with an 8pm local kick and most cities will be pleasant enough. If they want afternoon kicks for prime

SpiffCoug

The prime TV market is Europe, so they won't kick off important games in the
