Another great sentence...

I wish I'd written.  Tracee Hamilton, WaPo sports columnist in a very insightful analysis about why Chicago lost:

The USOC will now have to decide whether it wants to dance to the IOC's tune, and how much clothing it's willing to take off while doing it.

That's metaphoring at its best, folks.

And the stuff about the Olympics isn't bad either.  As my brother-in-law always says, "When they say it's not about the money - it's about the money."
