I can’t wait for a massive winter storm to hit NJ on SB weekend. Serves the dumbasses right. The SB should always, ALWAYS be played in the south in an open air stadium, no roofs or retractable roofs. That even means you Jerry Jones. Give me the Rose Bowl, Orange Bowl, Arizona, San Diego etc. any day. College stadiums are fine also.

Oh, and kickoff should be at 3:00 PM.

Nah - football is an all weather sport - the fans need to accept it and suck it up. Personally I think the colleges should do a 16 team playoff series at home for the higher seed and the superbowl should shuffle through every NFL stadium on a rotating basis. The whole “hold the bowls in the south” routine only punishes those teams who are built for the winter season and rewards those built for the south. If you don’t believe it then prove it by sending the southern teams up north for the next 3 years of bowl competitions. I’m sure there are plenty of stadiums that can support the same size crowds. Besides why should southern fans get more chances for those tickets due to travel budgets.

for a real football game, the super bowls should be played at Green Bay, Chicago, Pittsburg, Buffalo, or Boston.

Cordially, nuts to that.

My idea of a great football game is:

Bears, Packers, Giants, or Steelers;

Played outdoors in December;

In freezing drizzle or snow showers;

Final score, 7-3.

I prefer they go back to how they did it before the merger. Championship game is at the team with the best record.

I mean, everyone remembers the “Ice Bowl”. I think it would be awesome.
