Please tell me that I am not accurate!!!! Why the heck would the NFL allow the Super Bowl to go to a stadium that will be affected by the weather is beyond my comprehension. My wife like to tease me and criticize the American Football players for wearing pads instead basically playing rugby. She has commented on why the game has to be played in a climate control setting for the Super Bowl. Now that the game is going to be played in the coldest month of the year in a outdoor stadium I feel that next stop is Europe and we will have football teams over there soon. Why can't we leave things alone in sports. Do you have any idea how much tickets are going to cost much less scalped tickets are going to be? Can you imagine if the Giants or the Jets make it to the game what the price for a ticket will be? I know that Dallas is hosting the super bowl this year and the Cowboys have a chance to be in the game too, but at least their stadium has a retractable roof. This makes about as much since as the Minnesota Twins opening an outdoor stadium for baseball. I cannot wait to see what happens when the Twins are playing the Rays or Yankees in the playoffs and the game is called due to snow flurries. Or at game time the temperature is -10. "Hello sports fans, we are live at Giant Stadium with the temperature is -12 and with the wind chill it is -34 on a blustery and frigid day for football. It is so cold in the booth that I am wearing four shirts, three thermal underwear bottoms and I cannot feel my let leg. Lets go down to the field and get a report from Michele Tafoya. OOps she is frozen solid and her microphone is stuck to her chin. we will hear from her later after she thaws out..." The Halftime show has been canceled because the strings in Bruce Springsteen's guitar break each time he plucks them. Bon Jovi can not comb his hair because the hair product has also frozen so they refuse to go on. But wait, wait, I believe that Amy WineHouse who has nothing to do with New York or New Jersey is going to perform. Once again a British import will be performing at our big game and she is so high that she cannot feel the cold. They should play the game in Buffalo. That would be cool. In fact the Super features the Arizona Cardinals and the San Diego Chargers. Two teams that have no cold weather games all season and meet today in the Super Bowl.
If you are a New Yorker or a Tri-Stater this is good news to you why? This may create more jobs in the area. It may create and rejuvenate the economy in the N.Y.and N.J. area but if you don't have a job in sports or are not rich, this does nothing for you except raise the terrorist warning flag level to off the charts. I hope by 2014 to be living in New York. I can't wait to see this debacle unfold...
That logo is not the actual logo for Super Bowl 48 or whatever the number will be in 2014...
