from the Chicago Tribune
If the Olympics had come to Chicago, there would have been a full-court press to spruce up the area.
Blair Kamin is disappointed by his visit to Washington Park, site of a plan for a temporary Olympic stadium. As he sees it, a sports pageant would have been the best solution for cleaning broken glass and cracked sidewalks, so he offers the image of a team of basketball players in aggressive mode, armed with vacuum cleaners and feather dusters.
Ballers don't "spruce up," and neither do the real-estate jackals who salivated over Washington Park.
