Circular logic aside, Mr Mims, you have yet to provide a single credible reason why you are, in fact, hot.
So, what to do with Conan's "Suck It Paris" T-shirts?

Then out of fairness to the others you will be Slagathor.
London deserves it. New York didn't on the sheer fact most people there didn't care.

I was listenting to the radio and they were interviewing some people from NY and the consensus opinion from them was ehhh I don't care. Really seems like what New Yorkers would think too. Paris and London cared a ton from what I saw.

Ah ok thankx for sharing, I have been wanting to know.

Congrats to London. They were the best city to host the Olympics this time around.
Having the Olympics does get revenue back. You get revenue from people staying in hotels, eating, transportation, etc. Cities do make money by hosting the olympics, if they didn't, olympics really wouldn't exist because no city would care to host them.
NY in 2016!!!
I've seen some stuff about Athens and I'm not 100% sure this is for sure but supposedly they lost a TON of money from the Olympics. I think that even includes revenue from hotels and such. They spent $1 billion on security. That's a lot to make back up.
