There are 16 host cities among the three countries.

Of the 16, Kansas City is the best one.

The four national teams holding their base camps in KC, Argentina, England, the Netherlands, Algeria, they're already winning.

They have a leg up.

It is a beautiful sports city.

It's just quaint enough that there's not huge distractions, no traffic.

And take a look at these practice facilities.

Every time I open up Twitter, there is some new MTV crib-style clip showing me the base camps.

And Messi's living like a king.

Kansas City is a perfect city for a World Cup.

They know how to handle superstars.

Literally the biggest global superstar, Taylor Swift, is relatively untouched when she's in KC.

Three men biked the 10,500 miles it takes to get from Argentina to KC.

Is that on insane?

And scores of Kansas Citians joined them for the final part of the ride to the Argentinian team hotel.

What in the world?

Kansas City is a sports city, the perfect host city.

And I will probably be at more games in Kansas City than any other place

Across the three countries.

So that's my hot take.
