Yeah, the press is so hilarious these days...

Just yesterday I had a big discussion with someone regarding the german press... I hate it when they are so pessimistic about everything , for example sports: Jan Ullrich at the Tour de France... After the first day he wasn't as strong as Armstrong and the press acted like the tour is already over for him ... ( Not that I believe he will win the tour, but maybe he will be second, which isn't that bad ), it was the same with soccer, and look how they winded up being in third place ( with Brazil and Argentina being first and Second, which is not that bad )....Can't they be a little bit supporting or optimistic for one time!!!

No offense, but Caroline can you not celebrate the fact that other cities were eliminated but instead just celebrate that Paris is still in the running? It's slightly annoying because I'm from New York. (Not that I thought NY had a shot anyway)

I do think that Paris will get the games though. So good luck!

I don't know. Apparently London criticized the Paris bid (which is a big nono) so I think Paris will win.

Oh well, we'll all find out in less than 10 minutes.

Damn... Frankly I am not saying that because I am French and Parisian, but objectively, Paris really deserved it so much more than London.

Well London or Paris you know now with the EuroStar it's so easy to go there... And I will porbably be living in the UK anyway.

Congrats to London. Hopefully it will be positive changes to the city, especially when it comes ot their public transportation system...
