[The Emperor Fabulous]

The SuperBowl is the penultimate capitalist event. The half-time show is only part of it.

ahhh so soon! Excellent.. WAiting to see some BIG HITS!

Nothing gives me more satisfaction and feeds my hunger for entertainment than huge guys colliding into each other on purpose. There's just something to it I can not intellectually explain or even comprehend. But it's great!

But until until watching them grieve isn't funny anymore. Then we kill one of his relatives to freshen it up a bit, and watch the rest grieve anew... but then it gets not as funny anymore, so we kill another one, and so on. It's like drugs. Each time, the grief has to be a little more intense to satisfy the jones.

By all means we wouldnt want these guys to freeze their nuts off or anything, or their wives breast implants to freeze?

Sleet and rain would be cool the best blooper show ever if you ask me. Make those players earn their money hell yeah

Does anyone else think Pekka is gay?

[Tuberski]

Why, because he like seeing big sweaty men wrestling each other?

ACK!

[Mrs. Tuberski]

Maybe just a whole lot violent. But when it comes to football thats ok.

GOOD THREAD

I think the Super Bowl should be played at stadium of the team with the better record... like baseball, hockey, and basketball.

**** THE HALFTIME SHOW

**** THE PEOPLE THAT WANT NICE WEATHER

SNOW

[Snotty]

Ive played Rugby in snow. Real men take as much pain as they can get

[Imran Siddiqui]

I think the REAL reason that it is played in a nice weather stadium is because usually when it is nice weather, you get minimize the risk of sloppy play (fumbles, etc). Its an assumption that it leads to higher quality of gameplay from both teams.

when is the last time there was rain during a superbowl? It could rain in Jacksonville.

Putting the Superbowl in a Cold weather stadium would be a horrible idea, because severe conditions typically lead to advantages to certain teams. Teams that are already from a cold climate typically have an advantage in cold weather over teams from a warm climate. Blizzards and snow also tend to benefit smash mouth football running teams over passing teams. Now, you can earn the advantage of playing in conditions favorable to your team by winning home field advantage for the playoffs, but it shouldn't come into play for the championship game, which should have little external factors interfering with the game.

Of course, the Super Bowl should never be in a dome either. Football is supposed to be played on the grass, and it would give a huge advantage to any Dome team that made into the superbowl.

but by your logic, playing on grass would favour the grass teams over the dome teams.

and some domes do have grass now. I believe New Orleans does now. They ripped up the artificial turf (It was artificial turf when I went to a game in 99, but they changed it).
