Yes, but they already ran it on their crawl so the suspense is ruined.

So who does the sappy piece infomercial on Bob Costas sob we can see how much he overcame as he dragged himself out of St. Louis to the pyres of New York?

Tara Lipinski?

Only one musical chair left for 2024.

Budapest was one of the last three contenders to host the Games, along with Los Angeles and Paris. Last week an anti-Olympics group announced they had collected enough signatures to put withdrawing the bid up for a citywide referendum. Recent polling showed that a plurality of Budapest residents were against hosting the Olympics and its assorted costs, signaling the withdrawal referendum was likely to succeed.

LA and Paris will now scramble to be the last city to withdraw, thus sticking the other one with the grotesque bill.

It will be LA. The French are just a couple months from electing Le Pen, and that's going to be a complete sheetshow.

USOC can tell the IOC to pound sand if they want all-new venues. They should cut a deal with the Rams' ownership to use their new stadium, and that will be enough.

Yup, the day that happens the Frogs will pull out.

Plus god knows Trump will want an Olympiad in his 8th year as a backdrop for his version of Triumph of the Will.
