I agree with some of the video, but no one really cares whether the Americans like football or not.

Eh, the World Cup was advertised like crazy here. The US is easily the largest market for growth, and they've had a pretty blatant effort by FIFA to popularize the sport here.

That actually is a fair point.  As for exapnding the soccer Audience, USA would of been huge.  Espeically with baseball seeming incredibly boring,and the Premier league getting better then expected ratings on ESPN.

Also I believe Europe can't get anothe rworldcup bid till 2030.  Isn't it that you can't host a world cup if your confederation held one of the last two?


So Conmebol, UEFA, AFC... so bids for 2026 will be probably USA, then... Argentina?  Australia and probably like... Ghana?

For 2026 is Conmebol, Concacaf or CAF, I think the bids could be Argentina-Chile, USA, Mexico and an African Nation, taking into account that Australia is AFC, they couldn't host it until 2034... I would love it to be Mexico 2026, England 2030 (and going back to south America in 2034)
