The news reverberates throughout the northeast, as New York's shown the Olympic hand, in favor of London for host city in 2012. (President Jacque Chirac's insult of British cuisine may have backfired.) Reeling from defeat, our fair borough wonders, "Will New York recover?" Always looking forward, fiery locals ponder the possibility of 2016, or even 2020, for which Barbara Walters and Hugh Downs would certainly be slated to anchor. Still, even with emotions ranging from devastation to relief, tickled Sunnysiders everywhere giggle, "Our Mets still get their stadium, suckas!"
