While that sounds like it’s a ways off, Mexico is already preparing its bid for the tournament, and head of the Mexican Football Federation, Justino Compeán, made his case this week in the city of Puebla. Compeán says that Mexico is prepared to host the games, which have also taken place in his country twice before, in 1970 and 1986.

If this happens, will I be too old by that time to cover the event for VL? Yeah…
