I am not sure that boat was ever in port in Europe with its long history of ethnic strife, though some countries did better than others.

The same goes for every other place on this globe.

Certainly in your hemisphere.

Hopefully we can at least get the FIFA world cup out of this crap. We seem to be hanging with all the right people.  :lol:

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

The US, Mexico, and Canada are going to jointly host the World Cup in 2026. Or at least that is the plan.

That is stupid. Basically the host would be the north american continent.

Yeah, piss on that.  All three nations are suitable to host it individually, there's no need for a combined "North American" host. 

We hosted 1994, and it was a brilliant success, and it's not even our fucking sport.

Of course, the truth doesn't matter, so say whatever you like, Sean. Keep defending Trump though.

A website was joking that Turks in Austria are well integrated, because  the majority voted in favor of a strong leader.  :XD:

Think of Canada, unable to qualify, despite a lot of slots for CONCACAF. ;)

I am cool with the Cup arrangement.

It is really the US hosting, and we are throwing a few games to Canada and Mexico. I think the vast majority of games will be in the US, including all the quarter, semis, and finals.
