I honestly believe that there was some truth to this. It didn't seem fair to have 3 teams from CONCACAF get a free pass, especially given that one didn't have a good form. But Canada is king of CONCACAF now 😎

I agree. The best world cup in my eyes is the same # of teams (or so) but a loser's bracket for the bracket stage. The lower scoring the sport is, the more flukey results you get when it comes to a single game. One lucky bounce, one guy slipping on some bad turf at the wrong time, etc. etc. can mean the worse team wins a best of 1. If we're truly interested in having the best team in the world win, we need to reduce the effects of flukiness like that.

We had like 4 of them on the team in 2012 and still got swept by the Giants in the World Series. What a thrilling start to a decade of mediocrity.

The 20th Century? The century that had 2 world wars, a Cold War that led to a blocked off, isolated world, and boycotts of international competitions by "blocks" of countries that got along politically?
