Sorry, oman, but Farm93 is spot on.

That the US may never host another IOC or FIFA event?  Sure.

Unlikely, as FIFA needs the USA much more than the USA needs another World Cup or even really cares about soccer ("follow the money"), and given the USA's dominance of the Olympics and ("follow the money"--see above) the IOC will award the Olympics every two decades or so to the USA.  I think that the World T&F is coming to Eugene, OR soon.  That will/would be a refreshing change.
