Yeah, it'll be more and more, I think, continental World Cups, like we've seen, where you have to share across different countries in Europe or Africa or South America just to have the facilities, the training facilities, the stadiums, the ability even to host and take on the fans that are going to be coming in to watch all of those things.
I think if they do it, I could see them doing it.
For us as Americans, we look at the NCAA tournament, which has expanded similarly and now is at 64 teams and has been for a while.
Maybe they borrow the... In order to expand the tournament beyond 64, they did kind of a playoff to get into the tournament where it's the first four play and then the two winners move on.
Yeah.
I could see them doing something like that where they almost have a mini tournament before the tournament starts.
But it doesn't solve the issue for the Confederations that lose value in the World Cup qualifying rights because it's too easy to qualify.
The games don't have stakes.
And they've essentially ceded the idea of a playoff to get to a World Cup, which is what qualifying is.
They've ceded that money over to FIFA.
And that, I think, will be a difficult pill for those Confederations to swallow and to vote for.
It polarizes the moment, doesn't it?
That's what he does.
He's a polarizing figure in this country.
You know, there are a lot of people who don't like him and there are also a lot of people who voted for him, which is why he's the president right now.
And but when he is there, it doesn't make it he's not a unifying figure.
And I think that's like was the most noticeable when you talk about what happened with Flo Baligan and the national team.
It was a team that everyone got behind.
That was this uniting thing.
And then he got involved and it was a divisive thing almost immediately, both globally and domestically.
