Superbowl Idea


Montsta

Recommended Posts

Was watching the pro bowl last night and shortly thereafter watching a quick blurb on the crap weather for the Super Bowl and was thinking why don't they just do the Superbowl in Hawaii every year? You could have the probowl festivities a week before and NFL fans could make a week of it. The weather is always beautiful and I'm sure players families would love it. Maybe if you get selected to the probowl and show up to the game, you get two tickets to the Superbowl as well? Have an entire section of the best players in the NFL at the Superbowl. That would be kinda cool. Maybe entice players to show up to the probowl too? I was thinking that my wife would love to go if it was in Hawaii, so it may draw more casual fans to want to go. She certainly isn't going to want to take a week vacation to Houston or Indianapolis.

I understand that money is involved for local economies when the game rotates, but it might be better for the NFL as a whole to do this?

Discuss.

because why should only Hawaii get the benefits of hosting a super bowl. thats big time revenue for a city.

Why should Hawaii benefit from tourism in February? Because Chicago and Green Bay suck in February. It may be lost income for some cities but it would create a much better product IMO.

the superbowl brings bazillions of dollars of revenue to local economics and if hawaii hogged that every year there'd be a lot of people with tweaked nuts

If you were gonna go to a Super Bowl and had the option of New York, Santa Clara, or Hawaii which would you choose?

I love the idea of Hawaii being in the rotation like N.O. and Miami but I don't think it should be there every year.  It is probably a logistical problem as I'm sure the NFL has thought of this before.

 

Aloha stadium has a capacity of 50,000 so that might also be the issue.

hawaii, of course, but in this case the locational desires of ticket consumers will be completely outgunned by the desires of politicians and municipal leaders who know what they've got to lose.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
