At some point, U.S. Olympic Committee leaders ought to send the folks in Boston a thank-you note.
Instead of trying to sell the International Olympic Committee on a city that wanted no part of the 2024 Summer Games, the USOC got the dumb luck to wind up with Los Angeles. And when we're talking about the fiasco of this bid city process, dumb is putting it nicely.
Los Angeles was the best choice all along, a city that not only knows what it takes to pull off an Olympics but is eager for the opportunity to do so.
