Saw this on twitter. Not sure if there is any validity to it?
NEWS: According to @ESPN_JorgeRamos, FIFA called up the US to be ready if Qatar gets stripped of the 2022 World Cup.

I've been saying this was an outside possibility forever. Man, I hope it happens.

It should be, so many things wrong with playing there.

Definitely valid. Same guy that broke the Copa America news.

a lot of big sponsors are apparently calling for a look into the controversial awarding of 2022 WC to Qatar... so things could get very interesting

I'm sure they won't back out if FIFA sticks with Qatar. But you better believe they've told FIFA that they would be much happier if it got moved to the usa

If Blatter loses in his bid to retain the crown, it could very well happen.

Actually, if Blatter loses to Platini, then the World Cup will stay in Qatar no matter what.

Actually blatter was pro US. Platini was the guy who got in bed with the Arabic energy companies. If blatter wins he might move it to the usa to show he's willing to "adapt" or whatever. When in actuality that's what he wanted in the first place

I don't think it will be to Platini. They need a shake up to throw out any person that had anything to do with awarding Russia and Qatar the Cups. FIFA needs a clean sweep with pressure washing with bleach and no water dilution. It is a broken organization.

This. Platini is even more corrupt than Blatter.

Assuming FIFA voters do the right thing...

I agree that's our best bet. But if it's blatter vs Platini we should actually root for blatter
