of course then what'sa the stop any sport that isn't popular by American standards. If it's a sport that is of knowledge, then there's really no reason.

Would need a little research, but which region "makes the least impact" with it's number of teams entered? Asia, or CONCACAF? They'll never reduce CONCACAF's representation because FIFA is obsessed with cracking the US market.

Id like to see the final 4 places decided by international qualifying rather than have people whine for guaranteed slots

Agreed, I think it's a pointless obsession.

CONCACAF had 2 teams reach the round of 16 and a 1/4 finalist last WC

It's the truth... we did make it to the World Cup in '82 though. But we are pretty rubbish. We'll just have to be resigned to thrashing the world at Rugby and Yachting and Rowing then

indeed. I mean they've got the rest of the Americas, who cares if one country isn't into it due to borderline xenophobia (aka the whole "this isn't American therefore it's not any good" line)

Oceania, with it's half. New Zealand really needed to get out of that region when Australia bailed, because that could drop to a quarter soon IMO.

I thought before the last WC an asian team had never made it to the quarterfinals...? If that was the case, Mexico has been lapping the field in Asia for years.

I have a sneaking feeling that CONCACAF has underperformed for a few tournaments now, and might be due a reduction if it didn't include the USA/Mexico, who are influential or desired markets, but never really perform.
