New York City is a finalist for the 2012 Olympics, and I have to think they're the favorite. All the other finalists are European (London, Paris, Madrid, and Moscow), and three have already hosted. And with Athens hosting this year, I don't know if they'd go back to Europe so quickly.

As much of a pain as it may be to host, I do look forward to the possibility of an Olympics in a city where I know people whose floors I can hopefully crash on. I'm just going to have to bring my own food and water, as the prices will probably triple the week before the opening ceremony.
