Giving another World Cup to the USA means taking it away from somewhere else that really is crazy about the sport.
 
I am one that doesn't think the US is entitled to dominate everything. Let the rest of the world have something.
 
We weren't all that worried about the growth of basketball in the rest of the world when we decided to squash International competition in that sport with the NBA freaks of nature (A.K.A "The Dream Team"..)
 
I love the US. But there are things we do --- that we are compelled to do by our nature --- that aren't very attractive ... at least to me.
 
We are hard workers and are highly competitive ... but there are times when we need to give it a rest.
 
I spend a lot of time in Europe. Frequently, I am taken aback by the behavior there of one of my fellow Americans. We really don't know how to behave ourselves in the World. Of course, that's not all of us or even most of us.
 
And we aren't the only ones. The Russians are worse. And the Germans outside of Germany are just as bad as we are.
