**heennaRaf** · 02-12-2010, 04:22 PM

Even I can agree w/ a Boooo on this one. I was really looking forward to seeing a WC game in Philly

I will always have RFK in 1994 for the memory banks.

**Elaltergephah** · 02-12-2010, 04:49 PM

not to worry, they'll be building air conditioned stadiums and training grounds.

**Mboxmaja** · 02-12-2010, 04:55 PM

does qatar even have a frickin' team?

**heennaRaf** · 02-12-2010, 04:55 PM

If they don't they can probably buy one on the black market.

**Elaltergephah** · 02-12-2010, 04:56 PM

yes. will probably be the worst side ever in a world cup.

that is one small country as well. not sure how they will be able to handle the crowd. but not to worry as long as fifa's pockets were lined appropriately.

What would be the reason the USA deserves to get another World Cup, besides the money?

**heennaRaf** · 02-12-2010, 05:02 PM

Big stadiums to play in.

Stadiums already built? And hell, Arkansas has a higher population than Qatar

**incizarry** · 02-12-2010, 05:06 PM

I smell a Payoff scandal in FIFA's future.

**Elaltergephah** · 02-12-2010, 05:17 PM

over qatar?

infrastructure, stadiums, stadium size, transportation, hotels, not 120 degrees, people wanting to visit the usa.

**bribiaLaubysdggf** · 02-12-2010, 05:24 PM

And which has more money? 12 years is a long time to build the infrastructure needed.

**Elaltergephah** · 02-12-2010, 07:43 PM

yeah, 12 years helped south africa. they were under constant threat to be stripped of hosting because they were behind schedule.

**incizarry** · 02-12-2010, 08:19 PM

Uh, I think Qatar has more money available for this than S. Africa.
...and they do not have to worry about a little thing like Democracy to get in the way.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qatar
Qatar is an oil- and gas-rich nation, with the third largest gas reserves,[7] and the first[8] or second[9] highest GDP per capita in the world. An absolute monarchy, Qatar has been ruled by the al-Thani family since the mid-19th century and has since transformed itself from a British protectorate noted mainly for pearling into an independent state with significant oil and natural gas revenues.

But they had plenty of vuvuzelas ready, which was nice.

**XzBZB2UV** · 02-12-2010, 08:31 PM

What's the World Cup?

**heennaRaf** · 02-12-2010, 08:32 PM

It's what you cover your balls with when travelling around the world.
