Actually a larger World Cup favors us as a host, more teams means more Fans, more games...larger infrastructure needs, hotels, airports, stadiums etc. it starts to price the Qatars and South Africa's if the world out of the market.

Asia getting 8.5 is total bs. OFC deserves 2 spots. I want Tonga in the World Cup because I want the Haka in the cup and the NZ team doesn't do it.
Wow, that makes me sick. I have been thinking CONCACAF and Asia should get less teams and now they are getting more? We could now send all MLS guys the majority of qualifying and bring in the European games just for the final few games and WC. I don't like it...not at all.gambochaman said:
