		Before that in 1994 CONCACAF also had MEX and USA reach round of 16 (but there were only 24 teams in the finals, so it was easier to advance; USA fell to Brazil 1-0, and MEX lost to Bulgaria in penalties).

		Many feel this would be a very good thing for CONCACAF as a whole and the MLS since many figure at least 2 or 3 MLS teams would make it.
		Most people are not getting too excited about this until CONCACAF actually confirms it as some fear it might be a sham TV type event between Mexican and MLS teams.

	A CONCACAF Nation Will Never Win The World Cup \| Ramblings
		Luis Bueno has an article up at CNNSI where he talks about the difficulties that CONCACAF nations face on the world soccer stage and also talks about they many common ’solutions’ that have been proposed to lift CONCACAF out of the world’s soccer basement.
		If CONCACAF ever got strong enough to compete with CONMEBOL on an equal footing, a merger might make sense to counter the larger federations, but if done now, CONCACAF teams would be basement dwellers forever.
		CONCACAF has lots of little teams - so would you basically put the decent CONCACAF teams into the draw pool with CONMEBOL and then let the little nations duke it out in their own groups for one slot or a playoff slot?
