It’s a really a-hole move to compete against the Central Americans in Minnesota or Ohio, when totally unnecessary. Not only the cold, but they want to avoid Latino immigrant heavy cities (LA, Houston, etc), as to preserve their home crowd advantage.
They rather risk frost bite.Comment

Playing the World Cup in Qatar isn't putting the players health at risk?Originally posted by PSGman#19 View PostComment

So hear me out, you expect the US to not use all available to them to their advantage for their home game? They already played their away game in a stadium that is packed with home crowd, why would they come back and do the same thing at home? Of course they are going to use everything to their advantage to win. If it's not in the rules, you can bet it will be used to the full advantage. This is professional sports we are talking about.Originally posted by diz View PostComment

Obviously it was legal, and of course I expect the US to do it. Still an a-hole move IMO.Originally posted by mahestan View PostComment

Just a quick google search shows that the temperatures in November in Qatar can get to 85* F, with approximately 60% humidity. You don't think that can be bad for the players' health?Originally posted by diz View PostComment

Where does in the rules say it's illegal? a-hole move or not, they won. Goal is to get to the World Cup, not to be nice.Originally posted by diz View PostComment

Most definitely. Still bad tho, but we know how Fifa runs. It's the power of the dollar at work. Sadly the system is corrupt. Perfect scenario, climate would be taken into account, there would be rules to make things more fair, but alas it's never fair.Originally posted by diz View PostComment

We made Mexico play us in Edmonton in chilly conditions. Absolutely nothing wrong with it.Comment

"Honduras, Mexico and Panama use their heat and humidity as an advantage every cycle.
It’s only fair that the US and Canada get to use the cold as an advantage if possible. It’s fair game and it worked for both teams. Gamesmanship is fair play."
