"/\\  I really don't see Chicago bidding again for another 50 years...not unless it (or the 3 other US possibilities) is ready to throw another $100 million for the next round.  \nEven LA with a $100 million warchest is a hard sell for a 3rd round.  Remember, it only came back in 1984 because there were no other bidders.  That's NOT going to be the case for many years to come.  If LA were up against a Paris, Berlin or maybe even an Osaka, and I were on the IOC, I would NOT vote for LA.  I would go with any of the other 3 because other than Beverly Hills or Palos Verdes, there is nothing attractive about the LA landscape.     \n(There might be a glimmer of hope on the SF front.  Am hoping the Santa Clara voters will defeat the 49ers initiative there on June 8...thereby sending that idiot York and his team to share a supposedly 'new' stadium in Oakland with the Raiders. Then a \"San Francisco\"-centered bid might again be viable; altho a Hunters Point Village location might still be problematic for such a bid.  Even a UC-Berkeley campus-converted-OV would be very problematic with an Oakland-stadium location...but we shall see.  It seems the pros &amp; anti's for the Santa Clara location are neck and neck.  But even so, would San Francisco have $100 million and the backbone to launch another bid?  Not with all the other social-civic causes being cut due to budget problems. ) \nSo realistically, it's probably only going to be a New York City bid.  Otherwise, please wipe this 'Summer Games-only' wool from your eyes, Mr. A. \n"
