2018 & 2026 World Cup
The 2018 World Cup starts today. Without the US, I really have no interest. I find it interesting the marketing campaign being done by Fox and their sponsor, 23 & Me. They are pushing genetic connections to other countries to draw interest, because they know without the US, it's a more select crowd in the US that will be watching (still a good amount, though).
North America - US, Canada, Mexico - won a bid to host the 2026 World Cup. Very cool stuff. Ironically, it will be the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. All I have to say is bring on England...
