Was it a good thing that London won the 2012 bid?
Answers:
London should not need to build too many new facilities (but probably will anyway). The broadcast rights alone will bring in a fortune. Since these rights are negotiated for each country, the sums will be PHENOMENAL! NBC won the US rights for $2.2 billion US. They expect the worldwide totals to exceed $4 Billion when all contracts are awarded.
As long as the UK avoids overspending and corruption such as what occurred in Athens, then they have a great chance to cash in on the games. The worse they'll have to deal with is the traffic and the South London thugs.but hey, the Brits made the '48 games a huge success and this was only 3 years after the end of WWII!
Frankly, I'm excited by them winning the games, cause they could be great.
