Pretty solid draw for us. Can't believe we managed to avoid an African team this time.

Fuck Canada. They won't make it out of that group.

If the US can get out of the group, they have a winnable second round game.

I was sure they were getting Ghana again after getting skipped that many times.

Some interesting games:
Belgium v Canada: One red team at the end of their golden generation against another red team at the start of theirs.
Ghana v Uruguay. This one can’t end in penalties.
Mexico v Poland. Chicago is going to burn.

Might as well be the 5AM ET game since most Americans will be awake doing/having done their Black Friday looting.

2026 Host Cities are starting to be confirmed
Canada: Toronto and Vancouver
Mexico: Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey
USA: Kansas City, Philadelphia, San Francisco/Santa Clara (obviously Los Angeles and New York too but no announcement confirmation)
Canada is only getting two cities instead of three (no Edmonton and Montreal pulled out). 8 more US cities to be confirmed. Los Angeles, New York and Baltimore/Washington D.C. are locks. Pretty sure Texas (Dallas and/or Houston) and Florida (Miami and/or Orlando) get at least one each. Don’t know where the other three will be but Boston/Foxboro and Denver don’t look likely.

South Philly. Probably means the Phillies have to go on an extended road trip unless there’s enough parking for both. Same issue in Baltimore.

There is a lot shared parking so you could have a noon kickoff with a 7 pm first pitch with minimal, by Philly standards, issues.

World Cup playoffs today and tomorrow. Peru-Australia today, New Zealand Costa Rica tomorrow.
5 sub now made permanent with 15 on the bench an option. Probably means World Cup rosters will be at 26.

Hard Rock, they renovated it though the past couple of years. It won’t be the worst venue though if Los Angeles uses the Rose Bowl.

It's crazier than people think. Blatter said former French president Nicholas Sarkozy was lobbying hard for FIFA to pick Qatar & that right after the selection the Qataris ordered $14bn worth of fighter jets from France.
