    So after they have fed at the trough of

    shady business, FIFA now realizes that summer time in Qatar is a no go for the WC. I was in Andalucia, Spain last year where the official daytime summer high average is 35C; we experienced up to 45C on more than one day... the same site I checked says the average daytime high in Doha is 41 in the summer, that means temps. of 50C or more at times maybe?... all this talk about air conditioning stadiums etc. seems like that's all it was, TALK!

              Can't be any clearer than that. We would be in Hog's Heaven if WC came here.

                Wow Lazie you just had to ruin it by bringing the tri-state area into this didn't you. We're trying to have a World Cup with class here. Bring every match to DC and I promise champagne and caviar for everyone.

                  unnu also have a easy drive to CT or Philly so you can see more games.

                    Poor DC in that old soon to collapse stadium. Maybe by then you guys will finally have your new stadium in one of those gentrified communities.

                        Old? I'm sure you meant durable respected symbol of greatness. You can be forgiven for accidentally hitting the wrong letters on your keyboard Me. It happens to the best of us.

                          I'm talking about convenience for me Lazie! Sepp Blatter knows that if I'm happy then the World Cup will be a guaranteed success. GUARANTEED LAZIE!

                            But if they take it from Qatar will they then get a refund on all the bribes they paid FIFA?

                            I hope they saved their receipts!

                              You don't have a calculator?? or even remember simple arithmetic...Mrs.Hector (my primary school principal) wouda cane yuh!

                              But anyway, here are some round numbers approximately:

                              35C = 95F
                              40C = 104 F
                              45 C =113F
                              50C = 122F
