        Perhaps some other countries could get together and fund Olympics in a developing country. That would be a legacy!

        All of those stadiums for the World Cup really did well for Brazil! Waste of money for nothing. Rio will suck for athletes!

        The IOC knew it was a gamble. Knew it was unstable. Now the world will watch the carrnage.
