We're now less than 3 weeks away from the announcement of which city will host the 2016 Summer Olympics. Will it be Chicago? Who knows. Do I want it to be Chicago? Probably. It would certainly be exciting, and it would also probably pump a whole lot of money into our local economy as everything gears up to get ready over the next seven years. Unfortunately the downside is also about the money: how much will it cost, how in debt will we end up being and who will ultimately pay the bill.
The chicagogames.com website has a countdown clock that is ticking off the seconds until the announcement on October 2, along with a collection of articles about the goings-on concerning Chicago's bid. I'll be checking it periodically between now and October 2, and I'll definitely have my fingers crossed on the big day. Go Chicago!
