Side note, how the hell is Jacksonville on there and Nola not?

Isn't J-ville huge, land-wise?

Yea, land wise I think its the biggest in the US. That being said, I doubt it's got the hotel space needed and it is far far far away from having the venues. I think they have a basketball arena, a triple A baseball park, and the dump where the Jags play.

Would be a serious fricking investment by the city/state to build up that area.

Plus no one in Jacksonville goes down town really, everyone lives at the beach. So i'm not sure what they would do with public transit and olympic village.
