I have to laugh at BO's attempt to get the Olympics in '16.

He supposes that his trip to Olso will somehow sway the IOC. Pretty much the choice already has been made - RDJ, Tokyo and Chicago and Madrid have already given their proposals and having the reps from those countries/cities is really just a photo op for the winners.

Sorry, but showing up the day of the announcement of who gets the games is a just an excuse to "get out of the house and go for a ride".

If Chicago does win the bid, they can be assured of getting bail out money to make that dream come true. It's more money that the city, IOC and government has to pony up for the games and god knows what will happen to the folks living around the proposed sites for new venues that will be built by "private donors" -which you can read as BO's pals and the rest of the people who will look to milk the Games, the money and the people who will get shafted should Chicago win.

Buena Suerte folks, you are gonna need it.




BTW.

Lost Angeles is still spending money on sports programs from the '84 games, thanks to Mitt Romney. El Lay had almost 200 million in revenues after the singing and dancing was over.
