I'm still debating the merit of hosting the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and giving the 2016 Summer Olympics to Rio de Janeiro. Countries should have to financially qualify rather than the World Sports Federation awarding certain cities/countries these nationally staged events based on pity and past guilt. It's one thing for London to host the 2012 Summer Games. But it's quite another for a third world nation like Brazil to have the world pay for it's past slights.
