Impossible for me to care less about soccer than I already don't care.

Here is some attention you so desperately desire.

Play the matches at TDECU stadium on the UH campus so the fans from South America feel more at home in that neighborhood.

All those soccer fans are going to pissed off when they find out the games are only played at 11 am.

Doesn't FIFA know that SEC country is the be all, end all? Not sure why they picked those cities over the likes of Starkville, Oxford, and Tuscaloosa.

Stay tuned...

Atlanta got a bid so FIFA got one State with an SEC footprint.

I wasn't even aware the BDF had teams from Arlington, KC, or Miami. When did that happen?

Arlington - TCU (technically Fort Worth, but TCU just a hop and a skip away)
KC - Kansas
Miami - UCF (who will join the BigXII bad boys soon)

I've seen a lot of dumb posts but, sheesh, this one is pretty lame.

My first point is that the World Cup is in 2022 making half of the cities you are referencing irrelevant. UCF and UofH won't be in the Big 12 when these games take place.

Second point, you need to know where your future conference mates are located.

TCU - Fort Worth is not Arlington

KU - Lawrence is not KC

UCF - Orlando is not even close to Miami

Literally the only city you got right was Houston.

Orlando is only 3.5 hours away from Miami.
Lawrence is only 30 minutes from KC.
FW is only 20 minutes from Arlington.

You may have a slight point about the distance between the Florida cities, but the bigger picture is that being part of the Super Duper 12, either now or in the immediate future, had a HUGE impact on FIFA's decision. The rewards of joining the bad boy conference have been almost immediate.

Kansas City is in Missouri, not Kansas.

It's in both, genius.

And you don't buy a house on the Missouri side of the city.

Thanks to your post, I was able to determine that FIFA had something to do with soccer and that this thread needs no more of my time.

It's in both, though technically Missouri, with a BigXII Daddy school only 30 minutes away.

Is UF leaving the SEC by 2026? 3 of your cities don't have BDF schools either.

This is really bad even for you Bill. I used to halfway respect your trolling because you were so consistent with it but this is just really stupid.

The stadium is in Missouri. The hotel they will be staying in is Missouri. The food they eat Wil, be served in Missouri.

Kansas sucks as a state, which is why the SEC wanted Missouri and left Kansas to the Big 12.

Take a trip down Troost or the Paseo and go eat all you want. Try to live.
