In my opinion, and I think this is becoming the line of thinking for many city leaders around the world, unless a city is already currently prepared with proper facilities and resources then they don't want any part of the Olympics. Even then, I think most still want to stay away from it. Until the powers that be with the Olympic Committee change their model I think it will stay that way for a long time. To much money sunk in and to little made off of it, and a lot of times just loss of money.
