Forget it John

by Whaleoil on June 30, 2010

Brain FartJohn Banks has had a wee brain fart. It is good that he is thinking bigger for Auckland but the waste of money that would be spent on trying to even had a shot at the Olympics let alone hosting the stupid event could be better spent elsewhere.

Not a winner John, I’m afraid.

New Zealand should never even contemplate wasting the time and money on even thinking about such an event.

Let’s concentrate on getting a couple of decent iconic harbour crossings in Auckland before something like an Olympic Games, oh and fixing the motorway system.

Maybe fencing South Auckland in?

    So Auckland don’t want any noisy or annoying events in Auckland for years, turning them down when offered, and driving those already there out, and suddenly the aim is to get the most expensive (loss making) and disruptive event in the world, a one-off event at that, instead?

    That’s more than a brain fart.

    (I apologise for not managing to put a full stop in the first sentence there. Hemmingway, feel free to roll over).

    Not sure what John was thinking there, maybe he was just dreaming out allowed.
    Anyway, what would be the chances? We couldn’t even orgnise a fucking car race.

    Just when Banksie had Len on the ropes, he goes and does this! I fear Len will become the front runner again.

    It’s not surprising he had a brain fart. He must have enough sulphuric gas in his head based on his farts of the past to power Auckland city for the next ten years. Now the manhole has shifted from his arse to the top of his head and toxic fumes have leaked. He is a dufus of the highest order, transmogrified back into a twerp. Vote Family First!

    I think Montreal finally payed off its Olympic debt three or four years ago. For the Olympics they held recently. You know. The one NZ won a Hockey medal in. In 1976. Actually, that’s the year I was born. Must have been a LOT of debt.

    There’s no way in hell Auckland could turn a profit on the Olympics. I’d love to host the Olympics, and my patriotic heart would burst with pride, but is that heart burst worth billions of dollars? No.

    John Banks has a very dry sense of humor. he will be rolling around laughing his ass off that the press has picked this up and run with it . He is a very astute businessman and he knows Auckland and NZ could not afford it. LOL to all all of you that were sucked in,
