I guess Jerry Jones didn't come up with enough bribe money after all.
I really haven’t paid attention but maybe Jerry got the Copa Final?I thought that Arlington got it? Wasnt that announced? As for the grass thing, was it necessary to tweet that? Doesnt everyone know that they dont play World Cup soccer on turf? What I am hoping that FIFA requires is that the outdoor venues rip out the turf and plant real grass 6 months to 1 year prior. None of this laying garbage grass patches overtop the turf. Make the Jets and Giants play on grass a few years. They will survive. I guess for Arlington and Vancouver, they need to put down the portable crap grass. But for Seattle, Atlanta, and the others, it needs to be legit planted grass.

What would a big MNT match be without having to stay up for a 10:30 kickoff. ??No. Miami Gardens did. Also, the USMNT plays in LA twice? WTF? Mexico City with the opening match? Frickin FIFA man. So stupid.
You actually think the FIFA big whigs want to hang out in the Dallas-Ft. Worth suburbs the week of the final?I guess Jerry Jones didn't come up with enough bribe money after all.

Sounds like they like hanging out with oil producers. If only JR Ewing was still greasing palms in the Dallas area and lining up skanks for business deals, then Jerry might have got the big matches.The FIFA big wigs hung out for over a month in Qatar for the last World Cup and they are going to hang out in Saudi Arabia in 2032. At this point it should be abundantly clear that they will hang out anywhere that pays the biggest bride, er, ah, I mean in one of the world's great cities.
Yeah, that's it. World's greatest cities.
Sure cash is nice but you expect the FIFA big whigs to slum it in the DFW version of 4 star hotels when they can each have their own penthouse at The Pierre, The Plaza, Mandarin Oriental, Four Seasons and so on, plus dinning out at Michelin 5 star restaurants.The FIFA big wigs hung out for over a month in Qatar for the last World Cup and they are going to hang out in Saudi Arabia in 2032.

Did you really not expect Mexico City to get the tournament opening game? That was the bone that they threw them because they aren't getting any of the important knockout games.
I guess its the least they could do because I figured they'd base half the bracket (24 teams) in the US, 12 in Mexico and 12 in Canada and then the Mexico and Canada based teams would stay in country until through the Round of 16 with the "Mexico Champ" playing the "Canada Champ" in the quarters. I thought that would make it easy for traveling fans instead or crossing international borders frequently. Though, perhaps FIFA sees how easy it is to cross our borders anyway so they figure WC fans can just sneak back and forth. That one's for you, FK!
As it is, I think there's only going to be 20 group stage games outside the US, the equivalent of only 3 4 team groups + 2 extra games. There will also only be 2 Round of 32 games outside the US. So Mexico and Canada will be playing in the US from the Round of 16 on if they make it.
