Please god do not hold it in the US. It only held the world cup 3 tournaments ago.

Although to see Diana Ross miss that goal again would be priceless

As amazing as the World Cup was in 1994, a world cup in America in the next 10-15 years would be infinitely better. The US has had a rebirth in stadium building. Many of the new NFL stadiums are all natural grass and built wide enough to host international football matches. Many of the top european teams have conducted summer tours to new NFL stadiums and have been a huge hit.

Major cities like Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, Detroit Houston, Dallas, Phoenix Seattle, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Washington DC already have brand new stadiums with capacities between 65 and 90 thousand seats. New York will have a brand new stadium to replace Giants Stadium and LA still has two stadium with over 90,000 seats.

What I’m saying is this, the stadiums are bigger, better, and more suited for international football and soccer is much more popular now in the US than it was 1994. Fact is, it would be the best world cup ever.

If the rotation is kept then the future sites will be:

2010- South Africa (Africa)
2014- Brazil (S. America)
2018- USA (N. America)
2022- Australia (Asia)
2026- England (Europe)

I doubt the rotation will be kept but those are the most likely choices if it is.

The best situation would be England and the USA both hosting it soon, England in 2018 and the states as a replacement in 2010 or 2014, since all the stadiums are already set. In fact by 2010 pretty much all the ‘94 stadia will be upgraded or replaced.
