re: Texas A&M to host Brazil vs. Mexico friendly

I’m tired of soccer games like the US vs Mexico or Canada being played in Boston and Chicago, in baby size stadiums, in cold weather. I always wondered if US soccer picked doing games in the north and cold weather as a strategic advantage.

It's not the cold weather they are looking for, but rather, majority USA crowds. Hard to find that anywhere that has a big Mexican-American population as those folks tend to root for Mexico. I'm sure Mexico likes the prospect of about 90,000 Mexico fans in their match against Brazil.
