I wouldn't wish the curse of the Olympics on any city I've lived in and have significant ties to, so that rules out both Dallas and Washington, for me.

Seriously, hosting the Olympics is one of the worst curses a city can bring on itself.

Any Texas city that isn't Houston would be fine by me.

What's the problem with Houston?

Do you think Austin, Corpus Christi, Laredo, Lubbock, or El Paso could actually host the games?

Joint El Paso/Juarez bid.  Runners have additional incentive due to having to outrun spree killing cartel members.
