THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Now is a very good time to be a soccer fan By Andrew Robinson DEC. 2, 2010 might go down as the most impor tant day in the history of United States soccer. Thursday after noon in Switzerland, FIFA, the world's governing body of soccer, will decide which nations will host the 2018 and 2022 World Cups. The United States, along with Australia, Japan, South Korea and Qatar are bidding to host the 2022 event. Simply put, if FIFA chooses the U.S., the sport of soccer as we know it on our shores will change. That's for the men, though. The U.S. women's team learned its draw Monday for this summer's Women's World Cup. After defeat ing Italy in a two-game playoff to be the last team in the 16-team field, the U.S. earned a seed atop a group composed of North Korea, Colombia and Sweden. Major League Soccer, you know it as the MLS, has already done its share to help appease FIFA. League Commissioner Don Gaiter has announced considera tion toward changing the MLS' current March-November sched ule to match the August-May for mat used by all of Europe. Why would this matter? Well, the World Cup is played in 56.50 59.50 512.50 515.50 518.50 53.00 y,_H l I 16 1 1 , .21141' L).50 14 )40 'O.lO 25 4U 30 70 530 II nn 17 o 6 xo 645 12.50 20.10 2 , .71) 35.10 4'.40 I :•11 ' 65 Collegian Inc. reserves the right to reject. reclassify or revise any ad to conform to established policies.

Moving the sched ule ensures any and all stadiums that U.S. soccer would want to use to host World Cup games would be available, and it would help the legitimacy of the MLS. While the MLS might want to figure out a better time to air its championship game (8 p.m. on a Sunday in the middle of NFL sea son isn't too good for ratings), the league's level of play is going up. Next year; the MLS will welcome two new teams, and expand to a 34-game schedule and hopefully get more than a sprained knee from Thierry Henry. Along with Henry and England midfielder David Beckham, the MLS is drawing some big name international players, including Colombian and MLS 2010 MVP David Ferreira. But, a lot of the United States' best up-and-corn ing homegrown talent, including centre backs Tim Ream and Omar Gonzalez and forward Juan Agudelo, the first member of the U.S. Soccer Development MY OPINION Academy to appear for the senior national team, have made their mark in the MLS. Looking at the bid nations for 2022, the U.S. is clearly at the top of the list. Japan and South Korea co-hosted the Cup in 2002, so it seems unlikely FIFA would send it back there so soon.

That leaves Qatar. While Qatar's flowing riches are more than appealing, there's also the fact that it's about four billion degrees (exaggerated) there at the height of day, which has raised health concerns. The success the U.S. team had in this year's World Cup sent a message to the rest of the world that we're finally starting to take this game seriously. The youth development programs have improved by leaps and bounds in recent decades, evidenced by the rise of players like Landon Donovan, Michael Bradley and Clint Dempsey from those ranks. The MLS is increasing the size of each team's roster from 24 to 30 players, meaning there's a bet ter chance for college players to get their shot. Also, the MLS is re-introducing its reserve league, where young players will have an opportunity to not only play, but keep improving and make their case for a first 11 spot. It's not just America either, soc cer around the world is fantastic this year. In England. the Premier League is as close as it's been in years.
