Grant, will you have sort of a preview column? I don't want to say "predictions" but maybe a few countries you think will do well, a few you think will flame out, some breakout stars who will be way overbought in January, etc. This will expressly NOT be used for gambling purposes.
Grant you’ve been working on this for such a long time. You’ve covered so many critical stories and raised so many concerns as well as covering the US and world soccer (football/futbol). Have a great trip, be safe look forward to your coverage
Looking forward to your coverage Grant! If it's safe to share, will you be trying to meet up with some of the migrant workers you interviewed previously? Or if not directly meeting with them, do you plan on covering the off-the-pitch issues some more while you're there or just sticking to the football this time?
What is the deal with Gab Marcotti? He's an Italian with an American accent who lives in Blighty. I think I read somewhere that he is a UPenn grad. Sometimes I think I detect a Philly accent, but I'm not sure. Where in the US did he grow up?
USA games are the last of the day (except if we make i as runners up, then our R16 game is the early one) so will there be 3 thoughts *and* 5 thoughts at approximately the same time? That’s a lot of typing, Grant!
Grant, excited to see your coverage and learn about the Chat function, as I will be headed to Qatar myself on the 18th, for what will be my 5th World Cup! Not as impressive as you, but still nothing to sneeze at. (I too lived in the same pair of pants for 5 days straight down in South Africa, airline lost our luggage over Holland 😆).
Wow, I had no clue they don’t sell pants in either Poland or Ukraine! Hopefully Amazon delivers in Qatar.
Does anyone on Earth do pomposity like the Brits? What a slap of a comment! I have to admit I’ve never been there, so I don’t understand how deep that animosity runs in England, but you’d think they’d be more grateful. How soon they forget! If it wasn’t for us, they’d be speaking German today.
Have a great experience. I look forward to reading / hearing every word. Hope I can keep up!
I look forward to all of your reporting from Qatar! I am sure your input and thoughts will enhance my World Cup and USMNT fan experience.
What about podcast recaps of the US games with Witty, and maybe also Landon? Those recaps after US games during qualifying were always great.
I love the thought of you and those journos sharing an apartment in Doha. The four of you should team up for some content together. Would be awesome.

Have a smooth trip [and remember that multiple pairs of pants are over rated - that's not true for underwear].

Hey Grant, I look forward to your insight. Watch your step and don't forget to hydrate. Go USA.
