Criticism
Recently, the U.S. Open Cup has been the subject of criticism over its procedure of sealed bids to award home matches, which has resulted in DC United hosting 11 straight matches including two finals from 2008-2010, and Seattle Sounders FC hosting 11 of 14 matches in its three championship seasons from 2009–2011.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“When you overpay small people you frighten them. They know that their merits or activities entitle them to no such sums as they are receiving. As a result their boss soars out of economic into magic significance. He becomes a source of blessings rather than wages. Criticism is sacrilege, doubt is heresy.”
—Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
“Nothing would improve newspaper criticism so much as the knowledge that it was to be read by men too hardy to acquiesce in the authoritative statement of the reviewer.”
—Richard Holt Hutton (1826–1897)
“As far as criticism is concerned, we don’t resent that unless it is absolutely biased, as it is in most cases.”
—John Vorster (1915–1983)
