2016? You mean it took place there?
No he's saying that Chicago won the bid to hold the 2016 Olympics. Anyways I think this is pretty cool, though I'm nowhere near Chicago but still it's cool for the country.vipsoccermaster said:
Chicago didn't win the bid, yet. Sorry to disappoint you guys.

yes i wish it did.. since i live near chicago.Ether said:
actually i don't know, all i remember is my news channel talking about it.
Yea I could've sworn this wasn't official but I thought whoever posted it had just just seen it made official. Then I looked up a news story for it and there was none.
This certainly is nonsense. There are four short-listed cities:
Chicago
Madrid
Rio de Janiero
Tokyo
There are internet domains for both Chicago and Tokyo, but they're not 'official'.

I hope either Chicago or Rio de Janiero wins.

I was joking, Cookieboy. You didn't have to take my quote seriously. >_> And Cookieboy, your post never contributed to the topic.
Anyway, we can't have a city from the same continent win. That'd be redundant. Isn't that right?

My father works for the city so city workers are more informed.In fact Chicago is still close to being the nominee.President Obama is from Chicago.Transportation is a great and abundant resource to Chicago.Chicago ia a mulitcultural city.Its been a while since the U.S.had the olympics...think about it.

Overall it looks like Rio and Chicago are up there. Only 2 more days!
Chicago lost and Rio is the winner.
Oh well we could try again another year.Congratulations to Rio.
I don't know much about any of the locations nominated except Chicago. But congratulations to Rio for getting its place for 2016.
I wanted Chicago to win. Though is good that South America finally has their first Olympics.
In truth, I wanted either Rio de Janiero or Chicago to win. Either way, I welcome it.
