i just didn't know what you ment by small, but know i know you meant in comparison to Brazil 
But i'm new to " futbol" (it's not popular in the US, AT ALL lol) and i just logically assumed that Colombia should be a bigger threat than they are... They're not as big as Brazil but their population is like 15 times bigger than Uruguay, so it's surprising that their not very relevant in the sport

Oh, they are a "good" team but i don't know what's wrong with them lately(last 12 years?)
Like i said before, they had one of the top players, Carlos Valderrama; and they were THE SPAIN of the 94WC(but they failed)

That's far from "lately" though.  I know nothing about football in Colombia, so that's all my contribution to the topic, hehe.

You're right either way.

I'm not defending Colombia. I'm above it all. I'm a citizen of the world.

So, within five months we'll know who will host the World Cup in 2018 and 2022, respectively.
2018 and 2022 bids
Belgium and Netherlands
Portugal and Spain
England
Russia
United States
As long as the US or P&S aren't chosen I'll be happy. I wouldn't mind the US that much anyway, it's much closer to Mexico than the other countries, so I'd just have to cross the border.  Plus, the time zones would be much more comfortable. I mean, I won't have to watch any game at 9 AM. 
2022 bids only
Australia
Japan
South Korea
Qatar (The Middle East deserves its World Cup)
Who's your fave?

I doubt FIFA will go for another big country so soon. They're very concerned about Brazil being so vast... So I'd say 2018 will either go to Spain/Portugal or Belgium/Netherlands - I actually think it depends on who wins tomorrow.
Australia in 2022 would be nice. I'm not even thinking about the time zones, it's always a mess when it comes to Brazil anywayz.. They're even saying we're gonna have matches at 1PM here, in a country where we usually get 35 degrees celsius AT LEAST by that time, only to please Europe, so...
