USA -vs- Mexico WCQ

After days of speculation and swirling rumors, SLC is NOT getting the qualifier on February 11th, 2009. It's should be said that there were no "official" announcements from either camp, but the leaks to the press concerning the location had to come from somewhere, and the back and forth manner in which the location selection process played out on the web and in print has left many with a sour taste in our mouth for the USSF site selection process. In my opinion, if the game was staying in Columbus all along, we should have been told they were the front runner, but there a a few locations that may factor into the decision making process. Ultimately we are owed no explanation, but it certainly could have been handled better.

All that being said, which game will those of us in SLC get at Rio Tinto? In my opinion, we deserve one.
