"Agreed, no one can know \"for certain\" whether or not Chicago won't bid for another 50 years. However, if we were to put money on it, I would say Chicago is done for a very long time to come.  \nLike Baron mentioned, b4 the 2016 bid, when was the last time Chicago SERIOUSLY bid for the Olympics? When the city tried for the 1952 &amp; 1956 Games. And b4 that? When the 1904 Games were given &amp; then taken away from them. So, from 1904 to the 1950's to 2009? That's an average of 50 years.  \nUnfortunately, I don't think the people &amp; the city of Chicago would fall for, or stomach another debacle Olympic bid process. Protesters will be quick to throw the dismal 2016 loss &amp; the $80 million that were just 'flushed down the toilet' at city leader's faces. So, it's at least safe to say that Chicago won't be around to bid for at the very least this decade. Chicago is NOT going to take the Detroit road (which Detroit never got them anyway, after 8 attempts). \nWith S.F. in such red tape, I think our only hope now maybe NYC (if they can come up with a plan like London's), or maybe even L.A., but they would have to come up with a very COMPELLING plan for the IOC to even \"consider\" going there for a 3rd time. \n"
