Where do you think it should be in 2016?

I say Rio. USA has gotten it too many times. F Spain. Tokyo would be neat too, but after china, too soon.

Chicago ftw, USA ftw... If USA can't get it give it too Rio de Janeiro as I don't want b-ball gold match situation in which I had to wait till 2:30 in the morning to watch it.

I vote Spain. Having it in Chicago will just feel like a yearly Superbowl, not to mention the city looks like crap.

A yearly Super Bowl? There's only one Olympics every two years.

The summer Olympics are every 4 years, winter is every 2. Maybe not to you but for me, it wouldnt feel like the Olympics. I like the something different feel.

Both Winter and Summer Olympics are held every four years, but they're staggered so every two years we get an Olympics.

Example:

1996 - Atlanta, USA - Summer
1998 - Nagano, Japan - Winter
2000 - Sydney, Australia - Summer
2002 - Salt Lake, USA - Winter
2004 - Athens, Greece - Summer
2006 - Torino, Italy - Winter
2008 - Beijing, China - Summer
2010 - Vancouver, Canada - Winter
2012 - London, United Kingdon - Summer
2014 - Sochi, Russia - Winter

I voted Madrid, I think it'd be cool and a nice change.
Or Rio, that'd be nice.
