Yeah, that sucks for a whole lot of reasons. I'd rather have the Olympics than a World Cup for a whole host of reasons, but starting with the fact that a World Cup isnt going to do jack for our City, we arent going to get much out of it and its going to tie-up funding for things that would have benefited from.
