2012 Olympics

[Guest Wrestling_Man]

OK, Paris is the favorite, Moscow is the long shot, but my pick is London, I just think it's a beautiful city to have it and will have the best economy for all the guests.

[The Slickman]

Im watching the Paris bid on Eurosport at the moment and what theyve said or shown is impressive . I havent seen London's but i will think it will be the favourite

[Guest NYJetFan86]

I hope NY wins it

We need new stadiums for the Yanks and Mets

[Green Demon]

It is doubtful that NY will get it mostly cause some of the IOC members want to have it in other places then just in the US and also of any of the cities NY had the least amount of support for the games in the city. I would have to say that Paris is the mostly likely place to get them as of now.

Paris will win to get some of the heat off them from the whole Iraq War thing.

[TheSqauredCircleMessiah]

Even though I'm an American, I hope NYC doesn't get it. The US has four Olympics in the past 25 years, time to share. And I certainly don't want New York City getting them as they are the most obnoxius city on earth and have developed some sorta since of entitlement since 9/11. (IE: Them about to get the 2009 SuperBowl)

It's so early too care about them from an outsiders point of view. But if I had to choose, it would be London.

[MDK]

I just hope they don't end up fucking up where I live. My bourough (I've butchered that) is one of the ones that will undergo re-development. And I heard that Hackney Marshes will be turned into something olympic and crap. So many memories of that place...

[botchedpiledriver]

I assume it's down to London and Paris. I think Paris will get it, due to there success with World Cup 98.

[evertonfan]

Also, Paris have bid a number of times recently, and not won. This might be "their turn", although according to Sky Sports News, the IOC delegates where underwhelmed with the final presentation from Paris.

It's down to Paris and London now.

[MDK]

Please, I hope we don't get it, why would we want a fucking ice hockey stadium in Stratford after the olympics? Seriously now.

[Dan]

Come on London

They will probably give it to Paris.

[MDK]

They will probably give it to Paris.

Lets hope so.

[evertonfan]

Sky Sports News is saying the decision will be announced in about 10 minutes, not at 12:46pm as was first expected.

EDIT: Scratch that, the decision will be around 12:46, but the procedings have laready started.

2nd Edit: Fuck, we won.

Fuck.

[Summers]

We roooooooooooock.

Fuck yeah.

I dunno why I care, because I've paid NO attention to any of this.

So emotional. I totally didn't expect it to be London. Paris were the favourites. Now we just have to wait 7 years...

[Summers]

I love how it's 7 years away. And even a 14 year old girl who held the envelope will be 21.
