2014 - during the heady years of Barack Obama. Good times - no wonder NBC wanted to lock down the Olympics.
2014 NBC gets olympics
Following Olympics take place in Sochi, Rio, Pyeongjang, Tokyo and Beijing.
The Summer Olympics should always take place in a Northern-Hemisphere, cosmpolitan, first-world, wealthy city. London, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, maybe Chicago, Baltimore-Washington, Barcelona, Madrid, Toronto. Moscow qualifies, but no for political reasons. Sydney, Tokyo and Seoul qualify, but why pretend time zones and seasons don’t matter? These were put where they were for Chinese money.
Winter Olympics should be near such places, typically Italy, France, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Northern California, New Hampshire, British Columbia. San Diego or East Tennessee makes more sense than Soshi.
