Good news and bad news -- and I'm not sure which one is which.
Chicago lost out to Rio de Janeiro for the 2016 Summer Olympics. That means that hope is alive for a group that wants to land the 2020 summer games for Tulsa. You pick: Which one is the good news and which one is the bad news.
It's nice to have the confidence and, well, chutzpah, to actually believe that Tulsa could host an Olympics games. It also might be foolish. But there is nothing wrong with thinking big. Thinking small is what got us into a lot of mess we're in now.
If the group continues to push for the 2020 games I don't know if I'll be cheering from the sidelines or cringing, hoping that people don't simply point their fingers at us and laugh.
The Olympics in Tulsa? Stranger things have happened. So, bad news for Chicago, good news for Tulsa. Or is it the other way around?
