Why would they put anything in Colorado in December?
Steven: The NCAA people need to get brains in their heads. I understand that soccer is played in cold weather, but shouldn't be played in a played in a place that gets as cold as Colorado. The other sites are fine. If the sport was basketball or football, which makes lots of money, I am sure that the NCAA would select high-class places to conduct championships. The NCAA needs to realize that soccer is a more import sport than it thinks that it is.
