Just looking at soccer......and people.......if i were to have decided where to put Africa's 1st world cup.....i would have picked Nigeria......b/c it has the most people.....is fairly large geographically.....and has a big soccer history......South Africa is more into cricket and rugby....more white types.............................

Ghana, Cameroon, The Ivory Coast......etc.....have a larger soccer history.......then why did they pick South Africa..............??  Its white history.....apartheid........Antartica...................

Most logically.....go where the most people are.......and with the most soccer history......FIFA's world cup is soccer.....yes, South Africa has a good history....but West Africa is has more....
