In the end, I do not see what good lasting effect bringing the Olympics to a city may be. So maybe Detroit is not such a good idea after all?

I think it depends on the city and their infrastructure and culture. If I recall, the facilities built for the 84 Olympics are/were used after the games were over. But we (the USA) have huge sporting and other events that would use the venues on a regular basis.
