USA don't deserve it because they're only just hosted one relatively. 26 years compared to most European countries haven't hosted it for 50 years (*cough*). Also USA is hardly football mad.

Exactly.

So true but Americans also love to jump on bandwagons. You could sell the s**t out of the World Cup to the US and I guarantee that more money would be made than Qatar or Russia. Remember the US had the largest attended World Cup ever. Really the only hiccup is that we recently hosted it.... oh, and the rampant corruption that runs through FIFA. Im lumping shoddy refereeing with the corruption too. Some of the calls the last cup were clearly evidence to such allegations.
