In Topic: Bid Books - Are they of Any Real Use Anymore? (if they ever were)
22 March 2012 - 09:17 AM
One of the very important reasons for having bid books is that it forces Host Cities to do some work, and not just fritter away the time till they realize that the games are upon them. The books force cities to evaluate what they have (in the light of IF requirements and IOC requirements) and begin to lay out a plan to meet the requirements.

Baseball > Softball any day.
But women's softball is already on the program.

Women don't usually play baseball.
Both groups have been lobbying to get back into the OG.

Blatter asks opera star Domingo to be FIFA adviser
Opera great Placido Domingo has been asked by FIFA President Sepp Blatter to join a new committee intended to help clean up world soccer's governing body.
Blatter hopes the 70-year-old Spanish-born tenor will sit on a "council of wisdom" alongside former U.S. secretary of state Henry Kissinger and former Netherlands player Johan Cruyff.
"These gentlemen are more or less advisers, they are not the experts ...," Blatter told CNN on Monday during a visit to Azerbaijan. "What they should be also is the kind of council of wisdom, which my executive committee would not like because they think they are the council of wisdom."
Domingo's best known involvement in soccer has been appearing at concerts before four consecutive World Cups from 1990 with Jose Carreras and Luciano Pavarotti, who were collectively known as The Three Tenors.
Announcing the invitation to Domingo to join the FIFA committee, Blatter said: "He is happy, he is proud that he is part (of it)."
