and to think that London is being speculated as a future SB site... oh and it just happens to be -4 here at the moment.
The Cubans on the Miami Dade City/County Commission are easily bribable...
The Marlins stadium is gonna end up costing the taxpayers of Miami Dade some $2.5 billion over the next 40 years...
Corporate welfare is ok to these owners but helping ordinary folks...not so much...
Not to mention in Dallas last year the streets were iced over, this year it's cold in Indy also. The Super Bowl experience is also about the the experience of the entire week of the fans fortunate enough to attend, not only the big game.
I'd much rather be watching eye candy on the beaches of SFLA than freezing my azz off in a city with a dome. Wake up Goddell!
He originally used the weather excuse, but then the league approved a Super Bowl up in New Jersey at Giants Stadium and the weather could be even worse than during our last Super Bowl.
Goodell is is a buffoon.
I think the team that has the best overall record after winning the AFC or NFC Championship game should host the SB. The fans of this team should also get 50% of the tickets...even if they have to put the game in Green Bay. It's football....why do teams play in crappy weather in December and January, but the SB has to be in either a warm weather city or indoors?
Two ways I see this stadium thing shaking out...
First one is Ross renovating the stadium and dropping the field about six or ten feet and adding more seating and put the fans closer to the action, thus giving it a more intimidating atmosphere to play in for opponents.
Second, is to build a new one and Ross will split the cost with the tax payers using a sin tax on beer and smokes to help pay for it. Who cares if you pay an extra 50 cents for smokes or a six pack if you can enjoy a brand new stadium.
