Too many rabbits that will need to be pulled out of two few hats for us to have a legitimate way to pull that off.
There's no open space ANYWHERE in this city for what they need in keeping the facilities close to one another - something many previous Olympic hosts have been able to do.
Yet, they say they will have the space under the guise of using things on the South Side and basically wiping out Washington Park and relying on the University of Chicago for a large amount of facilities.
It's all just wishful thinking, can't even believe we got this far in the process. They think our ability to host the Gay Games is evidence of ability the Olympics. The Gay Games may be a large event, but the world didn't have it's eyes on it like they would the Olympics.

Same with Ottawa. We've been having larger festivals and events here every year but we didn't even have enough space for a Rolling Stones concert (which includes hotel space, etc.)

i've got two buddies in the south loop right now. love going down there.
that wasn't the case 10 years ago. we were driving to a sox game on summer playing some loud heavy metal music. at a stoplight some big bad dude walked past our car and was like 'MOTHA FUCKAS... TURN THAT SHIT OFF!' all serious to 5 guys in a car. that hood had such a reputation we rolled the windows up and turned it off. haha.
