Olympics 2020 - Phoenix gets the Games

8/8/8 - August 8th , 2008 - Let the Games Begin - The Olympics are finally here. America is excited. The World is excited. I am excited. 

Over $1Billion spent on Advertising. (yes, 1 Billion Dollars) for 2 weeks, thats only 14 days of Olympic events. Much of which (outside of Tack& Field and swimming ) which no one watches.

This year, (or this 4 years) Swimming has surpassed Trak & Field as a true phenom, Michael Phelps, our greates Olympic athlete goes for 8 Gold Medals (he already as 14 medal in his illustrious career). If he wins 8 medals, he will be arguably the greates American Olympian we have know. Do not miss history that you will be able to tell your kids about for the rest of your life. The day you saw the Great Michael Phelps win 8 Gold medals (in 1 Olympics!!)

Back to the $1billion,  It got me thinking (and dreaming:)

I have decided to start a campaign for the city of Phoenix to get the Olympics.

I know they say it is too hot in August (hye, its a dry heat :)..... , but this is the boost that the real estate in Greater Phoenix needs. (of course, I am optimistic , things will be much better in 12 years.

ok., I am making a stretch , but hey -  interest rate cuts havent helped, so why not the Olympics.

See you in Pheonix in 2020 and enjoy the next 2 weeks (remember , its only every 4 years)!! 

Let the Games Begin!
