2018 & 2026 World Cup
The 2018 World Cup starts today. Without the US, I really have no interest. I find it interesting the marketing campaign being done by Fox and their sponsor, 23 & Me. They are pushing genetic connections to other countries to draw interest, because they know without the US, it's a more select crowd in the US that will be watching (still a good amount, though).
North America - US, Canada, Mexico - won a bid to host the 2026 World Cup. Very cool stuff. Ironically, it will be the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. All I have to say is bring on England...

The US is never going to be a soccer country IMO. Not enough scoring or statistics.

Not having a US team qualifying doesn’t change my interest. I’m looking forward to watching quite a few matches. I’m a Portugal 🇵🇹 supporter but I have no illusions of them getting far.
I’m baffled by the fact that a country as large as ours can’t field a soccer team.
