I predict the 2016 Summer Olympics will be a big fiasco and possibly the beginning of the end of the Olympic tradition, at least in its current form.
It makes no sense that countries that are barely staying afloat should spend billions on stadiums and facilities for a 2-week event.

Tokyo will be the next stop for the summer games. Likely things will improve from whatever goes wrong in Rio.

I actually read on a Facebook post that the Games should be hosted by Greece and it should be kept that way instead of having the Games rotate from country to country. It would provide Greece with an influx of money and business and also avoid all the drama associated with the changes.
