Re: Championships location from 07 and onwards

There are some well deserving cities that have or will have, the facilities that Atlanta has for the Championship events. I think it will be very difficult to match what we have here in the facilities, hotels, restaurants, local transportation, a major worldwide news network and an airport that can handle the world.

Another city will very likely host the event for quite a few years I think, beginning in 2010. Then perhaps someday it will return to Atlanta. It seems fair that other cities be given the chance to host the event, perhaps it will help some teams travel costs and we can enjoy other parts of the country.
