With France getting 2030 and SLC getting 2034, the IOC made a slightly surprising move by all but giving Switzerland a clear lane to 2038. And I think this is a smart move. We saw how hamstrung the WOG's was for bids this time around up until the absolute end. You want to keep people interested and galvanized as long as possible. While this wasn't a double, it wasn't completely a triple. More like a 2.75. I can put my own personal WOG existence worries to bed. They'll be good for awhile now it seems. 2042 will get the Asian continent back on board and Sapporo can think long and hard about their slip ups until that time comes.
