I disagree with Steve Rhodes on one point: No Games does need to change it's name, because if it is going to be an effective instrument for change in Chicago, as opposed to an organization that merely seeks to prevent further problems (such as the Olympics), then they are going to have to show what they are for. Right now what their name states is what they were against. And I merely reactive group isn't going to cut it.
I thought about that for a bit and wondered if "No Games" could become a general message....sort of like "We're against Chicago's leaders playing games with our taxes."
But no, that's a lame idea. They need a new name.
