US lost out on Cup? Think again

"The US just won the right to host the FIFA World Cup. And Sepp Blatter didn't even have to announce it.

Sure, Thursday’s votes for 2018 and 2022 didn't go the Americans’ way. But by FIFA handing the 2022 World Cup to Qatar, it's difficult to imagine the event going back to a country in the Asian Confederation so soon.

And so, ladies and gentlemen, we can announce with a fair degree of certainty that the 2026 World Cup will be coming to the United States. Who cares if American fans have to wait an extra four years? It's in the bag."
