That’s alright — lots can happen between now and 2022.
The way things are today, Qatar may not exist.

"The way things are today, Qatar may not exist."
It may be a U.S. possesion by then. We could be hosting the world cup again...
To: Dr. Ursus
I agree. That’s pretty cheap these days when dealing on the international scene.

Or we may be a Qatari possession and camel racing/humping/kissing will be a major sport on any American college campus.

$5 million? That’s a bargain. Look at what NBA teams are going for these days.

Heck the Obama’s spent more than that on travel for the Chicago games that did not happen. At least they got something for their money. We pissed it away.

I think there’s a very good chance the US would get it in 2022, if Qatar doesn’t.
We are the best country for moving it, on short notice. Won’t have to build any stadiums, and the games will be well attended. The 94 WC here is still the most attended of any WC.

$5 million? That’s it? Wow those third-worlder Africans are cheap.
The joke is on Qatar though. They’ll have a bunch of stadium they do not need after this soccer tournament is over.
To: SeekAndFind
They paid less than that for Obama!

And Qatar is the same country that is taking custody of the 5 released gitmo terrorists and ensuring us that they will be held securely.

Theyll have a bunch of stadium they do not need after this soccer tournament is over. Part of Qatar's bid was a promise to dis-assemble most of those stadia and give them to underdeveloped countries. No joke.
