Go there and you'll see a few more links that give more details. Apparently the threat was more than just a casual mention of the possiblity (which was what I ddid), but was a detailed explanation and a real threat to do it. Here's just a little:

"The death toll will approach 100,000 from the initial blasts and countless other fatalities will later occur as result from radioactive fallout," according to a copy of the posting that was obtained by The Associated Press. The bombs, according to the posting, would be delivered to the stadiums in trucks. All but one of the stadiums -- Atlanta -- are open-air arenas, the posting noted, adding: "Due to the open air, the radiological fallout will destroy those not killed in the initial explosion." Explosions would be nearly simultaneous, the posting said, with the cities specifically chosen in different time zones. The posting said that al-Qaida would automatically be blamed for the attacks and predicted, "Later, through al-Jazeera, Osama bin Laden will issue a video message claiming responsibility for what he dubbed 'America's Hiroshima."'

Just freakin WOW and our feds are now claiming the threat wasn't credible? This is just way to thought out not to be credible. My guess is that the feds are claiming it wasn't credible because they don't want to be accused of pulling a political stunt by the Libs and MSM.

Search all them beer trucks. Garbage trucks, too.

I hope they don't blow up Cleveland. I live too close to the stadium. I better watch the game in the basement.

There was a threat posted the night before 9/11 on the old MSNBC news board.

It was not specific as to the method of attack. It was more of a a taunt about what was going to happen the the next day.

It was thought to have been made by by Adam Gadahn from Pakistan.

Pre-9/11 threat posting here:

Impossible. The NFL has made recent changes to ensure that the early and late games almost never overlap.
