"Boston 2024: Worst Idea Ever"


          

I can only hope the USOC doesn't want the US to host the 2024 Olympics and they're throwing the competition.

It's hard to think of a worse city to host the games. It's cramped, congested, difficult to navigate, has relatively poor mass transit. You don't need a car to live in Boston, but if there's ANY event going on, forget about it. Green Line? Nightmare. It can't even handle Sox games.

Then there's the lack of facilities. With the exception of the Southie Waterfront, where are you going to build anything? Fenway, while charming, is a piece of shit. Foxboro is 45 min to 1 hour away in ZERO traffic. A Pats game or concert can make the Boston to Foxboro trip 2 hours, easily.

And do we trust Boston to expand its infrastructure after the Big Dig took 86 years and went 6.3 trillion over budget?

You think the rest of the world hates America now? Wait until they experience that good ol Masshole hospitality...and Bostonians are the worst of the Massholes. You will not find a ruder city in America, and NONE OF THEM EVEN WANT THE GAMES. Imagine what assoles they're gonna be if they have something to be resentful about.
