.... Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Tony Parker of the NBA champion San Antonio Spurs said Paris? loss proved the IOC had an Anglo-Saxon bias.?It?s been three times now that Paris has been refused ? 1992, 2008 and 2012. I find that bizarre,? Parker said. ?We did everything we had to do. I don?t know what more we could have done. ?It proves that the committee is Anglo-Saxon. They prefer the English.? Oh geez. Go cry in your milk. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/340849-olympics-london-will-host-2012-games/page/4/#findComment-586171065 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makeshift Hammer Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 . Oh geez. Go cry in your milk. 586171065[/snapback] He doesn't have much of a case there either. Maybe he should study his Olympic history a little. 1896 Athens, Greece 1900 Paris, France 1904 St. Louis, USA 1906 Athens, Greece*(not official per IOC) 1908 London, England 1912 Stockholm, Sweden 1920 Antwerp, Belgium 1924 Paris, France 1928 Amsterdam, Holland 1932 Los Angeles, USA 1936 Berlin, Germany 1948 London, England 1952 Helsinki, Finland 1956 Melbourne, Australia 1960 Rome, Italy 1964 Tokyo, Japan 1968 Mexico City, Mexico 1972 Munich, Germany 1976 Montreal, Canada 1980 Moscow, Soviet Union 1984 Los Angeles, USA 1988 Seoul, South Korea 1992 Barcelona, Spain 1996 Atlanta, USA 2000 Sydney, Australia 2004 Athens, Greece We match the amount of times the french have had them. Next ones are in china too. not exactly anglo saxon.
