Qatar to get the World Cup

I know I'm a couple of days late on this one, but Qatar is getting the World Cup in 2022. Now I don't mean to be rude or anything, but REALLY? A few years ago, I was bigger than that country. While getting the World Cup in the middle east might be a big move and all, but why Qatar? They've NEVER qualified for the World Cup, and outside of this one, they won't for a long time either.

Now you might say I'm upset because I'm an American and we didn't get the World Cup for that year or 2018 either, but I never expected them to give us the World Cup, even though the sport has become much more popular since having the 1994 World Cup, mainly due to the play of the US team in international play and MLS staying steady at least. While it's not the biggest sport here like it is in the rest of the world, it is becoming more popular over time.

I think another World Cup for the United States would help propel the sport here even further. Hopefully the FIFA committee will come to realize that someday.
