Congrats to London 2012!

Although I sincerely think London was a worse candidature than Madrid 2012, I am happy that London will host the Olympic Games rather than Paris. Here we are too tired that France always wins in this kind of elections, as in the last one they won us about hosting the ITER. It is the third time Paris has been defeated when pursuing the Olympic games, hahaha!.

i really thought Paris was going to win..

i preferred Paris though...it is a much lesser distance for me to travel, only 1.5 hours by TGV...but congrats to London

Put that in your pipe and smoke it Mr. Chirac!
 
I wasnt really concerned to good old jacque opened his mouth since then i really wanted us to win it.

I think london deserved to win, purely because it has been many years since great britain has hosted the tournemant.

That'll learn you not to mess with chish and fips.
 
hmm.. we could conquer Britland by 2011, establish the new New York and even use same old NYC 2012 banners.. I'll have to write to my local US President about this someday :biggrin:
 
I wanted moscow to win :frown:
 
Aren't they building a new stadium and all for it?
