I must ask, fellow leafs and burgers. Why the fuck did our governments place a bid to host this WC? I didn't really want to host this. Would've been fine if it stayed in Europe or South America. But no, our governments just wanted to host it, despite Canada and the USA not having a big football presence.And it's clear that it was a mistake, because if haven't noticed, this whole board has been filled with people just seething about America. That's half the conversations that been happening here. It wouldn't matter if this rain storm didn't happen, and this event went as smoothly as possible, all these outsiders would found something to complain about, cause they just hate us. They hate what we stand for and they hate how we do things.It's just makes no fucking sense to me.
A select few are making a lot of money off of it being here. Everybody always hates the US so I am used to it.
>>155652522Because money. We're in for a big economic downturn after the midterm elections and this will soften the blow.
>>155652639To be honest, this World Cup so far has improved the perception and reputation of Americans quite a bit.
>>155652522The answer is always money.
>>155652522All the other bids were shitholes
>>155652759Is that actually real or is it just tiktok grifters who know they can get famous by telling Americans how great their country is?Pic related. Other than the eagle flight, is Jordan-Hare stadium really that special?
>>155653620This guy is fake, but overall Americans have made a good impression on the WC fans who travelled there from what I'm seeing.My uncle is there for the Ecuador match and he's also only had positive things to say so far (aside from how astronomically the prices for restaurant visits in the US have increased since he was last over there).
>>155652522The Clintons wanted it
>>155654555That particular guy is actually declining money from people so I’m not so sure.
>>155652522>hey fellow NA chuds why come we hosted the world cup, everybody hates usleaf projection sorry to say m8, I dont know if you watched all the propaganda we've gotten in the USA but its looking like we are so back.
>>155654555Americans are extremely nice, I thought this was known around the world. What do Europeans actually think of us?
>>155658179American tourists are usually loud and obnoxious. People that have never set foot in the US tend to think the american tourists are representative of the american population.
>>155658179euros dont like america or it's people because orange man bad. most people here think you are retarded
>>155652522Many good things are being said too and it is a huge party that gives the host country a good feeling, a faith in the future and pride of the country. As time goes by, it all vanishes but for a few months you feel good
>>155652522Them seething about us was predictable and is the only upside and the only reason I'm here.I truly do not care who scores the most net touchdowns in divey grassey, no matter how much they say I'm coping about us eventually losing. I thought we would have already lost. I was just sad Mexico didn't get to host it alone since they like refball. But I'm told that they apparently can't since it's "too big for them". But I don't see why they have to split the games over so many stadiums when they're doing one or two a day anyways even in the trash filter rounds.I don't even care about our own football since it became kneelball, I've just stopped watching sports in general.I was hoping they'd come up with more novel seethes but it does seem to mostly be more of car bad, money bad, food poison lol
>>155652522It's actually going pretty well I have no idea what you're reading and why you're seething so hard
>>155659091They're right but they badly need to realize they are themselves three times as retarded as usThe Clinton dicksucking has to endThe most pathetic example of this is euros just spamming Trump Epstein over and over, ignoring that he was an informant with no record of going to the island, and ignoring that the Clintons and various other mostly Democrats kept going to the island. It's a doubly bad look because it makes it obvious they never cared about kids and are just reverse izzating and class seething by proxy.
>>155652522>sees a few complaints/banter about a match being delayed>get so butthurt he creates a novella of an OP
>>155660187>it was mostly democrats>well it was lots of people from bith sides of the aisle, and notably one of the guys connected closely to Trump's first campaign and right wing media.>but ignore that it's mostly muh democrats
>>155660243>You should be ashamed for voting for the party less involved with pedophiles! You must travel to another state to kill that baby, please understand moshe.
>>155652522Have yuropoors ever not seethed about the US? Fuck em, this has been fun
>>155652522damn you're a sensitive little snowflake
>>155660335>can't read>thinks "less involved" is something to brag about>gets flustered and defensive in his confusion Lol
>>155659091>most people here think you are retardedHave they ever bothered to take a look at our list of inventions?
>>155660390Surely you dont think most Americans have invented something of note
>>155658965>loudThat's just how we're socialized. It's not like we're loud to be annoying, we just speak with conviction.
>>155660390Lmfao bro this is exactly why they think that. What has the average American invented?
>>155660410>>155660454What has the average European invented?
>>155660489The same thing as the average American. Nothing
>>155652522because it's north America's turn and the other shitholes around us couldn't afford it.
>>155660390there's the internet and the peanut butter and jelly sandwich(the sandwich was invented by the british)(the computer that you invented the internet for was invented by the british)(the language you post in (and think in) was invented by a british)
>>155660544Computers were a collaboration between the Americans and the British
>>155660410Air conditioning and the refrigerator
>>155652522What do you care? They practically line up to suck off Canadians these days despite knowing fuck all about your country. They just know Trump picked on you so it must be a European utopia like them
>>155660585and hungarians
The majority of the games should be played in Mexico, then a couple here in the USA. And like 1 in Canada.
>>155652522FIFA is bending over backwards to enter the Chinese, Indian and American(+Canada) markets and failing
>>155654555When you visit a country the polite thing to do is focus on its positives. People like that.
>>155658965As a group, Americans that have a passport are probably less loud and obnoxious than those that don't by a significant margin.
>>155652522>I didn't really wantLil pajeet thinks anyone cares what he thinks. What mental illness is this
>>155660953China should host soon
>>155652522>Why the fuck did our governments place a bid to host this WC?i can't speak for leafburg, but i know for a fact >our current ruling class is literally laughing as the rest of us slide headfirst into third world status...so fucking over local communities while they show off to their billionaire globalist buddies is simply par for the coursealso, this is the country where billionaire team owners literally move teams city to city just because they pout when their "home" cities won't give them a free shiny new 20 trillion dollar stadium every decade
>>155661551India should host.
>>155661551>>155661578you need at least 1 player to earn that
>>155658179That you are rude loudmouths like you are online?
>>155661611But India hosting would be hilarious
>>155660585The British invented the programmable computer but kept it a secret so they could decode diplomatic traffic. America invented it later and got all the glory and the US became the center of computing. Later it was declassified and we had to rewrite history- the British built the first programmable computer, not the US! However by then it was clear that they wasted their head start and it was a dead end, the secret didn't keep them a global hegemon and overall it was a massive missed opportunity.
>>155652522I don't care at all. none of this is happening where I live. it might as well be in south america or europe
>>155661611>you need at least 1 player to earn thatthat didn't really stop FIFA from giving it to qatar, who had to import five dozen mercs just to field a squad
>>155658965>American tourists are usually loud and obnoxiousThis isn't true. They're very friendly and I've never seen them behave in any way that could be considered rude or unpleasant. Granted that there is far less culture shock for them here than in some other places, but they're generally very sweet people.The most negative thing I ever saw from American tourists were two African American ladies who were raising their voices a bit more than they had to while chatting in the metro. But they weren't doing anything wrong other than being a bit loud. And even then it was a one-off thing, and you can't even make it about race because the other blacks I see around are very cool.
>>155652522>It's just makes no fucking sense to me.Money.It's also why FIFA accepted.>The 1994 FIFA World Cup was the 15th FIFA World Cup, the world championship for men's national soccer teams. It was hosted by the United States and took place from June 17 to July 17, 1994, at nine venues across the country. The United States was chosen as the host by FIFA on July 4, 1988.[1] Despite soccer's relative lack of popularity in the host nation, the tournament was the most financially successful in World Cup history.
They should have kept the games clustered around one region like NE, California, PNW, etc with maybe some nearby Canadian cities as co-hosts. Having the games hosted across all of the US is soulless, let alone all of Canada, Mexico, and USA.
