Superbowl in NY (actually NJ)

[Dpantherman]

personally...I think if you are big enough to host an NFL team, you are big enough to host a Super Bowl! Same with the weather....Seattle can't host because they have an open air stadium and it might rain/snow? That's bullshit....it's an all weather game!!!!

its aggravating to hear people whine, moan and b*tch about weather in the Super Bowl. and use words like "fair chance" what about the games that get you into the freaking game??? do all of them have to be indoors as well?? thats one reason why I hate that the Saints got home field. its pure BS. play the damn game they way it was meant to be played. the old school players are probably laughing at those wusses

Why do I have this feeling that for all the griping about the weather, on SB weekend it'll be unseasonably warm (upper 50's)?

here's an idea.....win it = host the next one!

There is no train to the Meadowlands. You can take a train from NYC to Hoboken which is across the river then drive the ~10 miles up RT 3 to the Meadowlands. There are also trains from NYC to Newark but that is then a drive to the Meadowlands.

The Stadium is in the middle of swamp and surrounded by nothing but a big huge parking lot. The only way to get to anything is by car and like I said there is nothing even really nice around the area. You will really have to take the drive into the City to do stuff.

Ok... let me stand a bit corrected..... in the Meadowlands is also a horse track, Arena, and a never finished place called Xanadu that was supposed to be an indoor ski slope

They actually just finished a line going straight to the stadium.

I like that idea. Not the next one, because cities need two or three years minimum of planning ahead, but win the next one in line. Hawk for Prez!

maybe you could put a stagger in there...but I really don't think it should take more than a year to plan either...but thats just me!

Hotels are booked way in advance. Maybe not in Charlotte or other smaller markets, but in the big titties they are. I mean cities.

[Guild]

Three years planning is barely enough. I like the idea though as modified by Meat. Rep and pie all around!

I disagree...you get a group of folks that roam from city to city to assist...and what else do you have? You book the entertainment, you book the special guests....pretty easy I think, especially if you have people onboard who have done it before.

Meat's right. You have to make sure the books are clear as far as conferences, festivals and such.

agreed. great idea

Come on...nobody wants to go to Buffalo...

Why is everyone complaining about the Super Bowl going to a colder, open air stadium? An environment like that would benefit teams that run the ball more often (like us) and hurt teams that pass more often (like the Saints). Anything that could possibly play in to our hands is ok in my book.
