Because this was a chance for numerous fans in the United States to care about soccer again. Especially for fans like me who rarely get to witness world-class soccer outside of watching it on television. We're stuck watching the MLS and the Houston Dynamo. I would have enjoyed seeing this country host the World Cup again. This meant something to the city of Los Angeles. They had beat out Houston, New York, Chicago and other "well deserving" US cities that could have gracefully hosted this event - every bit as well as Russia and Qatar. I can't even locate Qatar on a map, sadly enough.
Qatar is one of the top 5 richest countries in the world easily so it's pretty sad that you don't know anything about it.
You would have enjoyed it,but for some reason I wouldn't fancy a US WC that much and I'm sure A LOT of the people who actually watch/care about real football will agree with me.
I mean you have 40% of your country making fun of " soccer fags " and shit like that. Your people are too stubborn to ever accept it.
I'm not talking about you,but that's the way it is in general. Your country is too thick on the 4 major sports.
I can imagine that the US WC would be boycotted lmao.
*long story short - There aren't many fans like you who would enjoy the football world cup in the US.
