I watched the presentation. (FoxNews preempted Red Eye for the presentation...that was annoying)
It was boring, the people they had speaking, and the video presentations they used were not...very convincing. No one speaking (including the Obamas) seemed to really use a lot of enthusiasm in their voice. Everything was bland and boring. (Watching Red Eye would have been much more entertaining)
I'm actually glad that Rio got picked. South America has never had a country host the Olympics. It's about time they got a chance.
Besides, just about every city that's hosted the Olympics in the past 30 years has gone into serious debt and way over their budgets building everything for the games. (I think the only exception was in Utah, but they still had a huge financial scandal for that one tho, if I remember right...)
