Brian, Nice job, especially since you picked an article that focused on the economics of hosting the Olympics. It was about more than just Chicago losing the bid, though -- it was also about that it would have cost the city a lot of money and would probably not have done that much for the economy. Also, when I asked if you agreed with what was happening, I meant in this case if you agreed that Rio is better to host the Olympics than Chicago.
