Nashville is more than competent with their infrastructure. But once you are in the city and passing you
No its like you don't get what FIFA looks for. Yes Nashville is a cool city. But it can not host like Atlanta can. Stop letting you Bias get in the way.

I actually have all the reasons in the world to hate nashville. Good call on the bias though.

Hotels no

Transportation in the city even though frick the Marta no

The infrastructure is a terribly argument. It would matter if nashville couldn't handle it, but they can.
After that it should be obvious. Have you ever been out in both cities? There is almost no way you have. Because it should be obvious.

Yes I have when Nashville starts hosting Super Bowls and Olympics not Music City bowls maybe it will be on the same level as ATL

It rains in Seattle and no retractable roof, Philly is Philly it sucks and the people are dick heads, Kansas City is crap for culture except BBQ and in no way can compete with Houston on infrastructure.

dude nashville is awesome but you dont get to be a WC venue because the bars are a little bit cooler than another city's.

Atlanta is probably cooler from a foreigner's perspective because Atlanta hosted the Olympics.

Rose Bowl, ATL new stadium, Reliant, and Cowboys
Sun Life, Met Life, Fed Ex, Gillette, San Fran, CenturyLink, Lincoln Financial, Invesco ??
These would be the 12, I'd bet money on it.

You keep changing your criteria. If we are now going on which cities are capable of hosting and are good sports cities then throw LA the frick out because they are horrible sports fans.

Tiger Stadium's field is too small to fit the field.
There's one in the 70k, a couple in the 60k, and a few right at 40k.
In the US they'd all be at least 70k. It's no surprise the US would break the attendance record again. But we hate soccer.

actually it would be part of the criteria bc ticket sales rely heavily on the local population
Unless USA or Mexico are playing in Houston you would need about 50% or more of the tickets to be bought by locals.
