How can they allow the Superbowl to be played in New Jersey? Nothing against the area, but the Superbowl is as much for the fans as it is for the teams. What type of functions do you think they are going to be able to have in February in New Jersey? If you've ever been to a Superbowl, you know the fans get there at least a week early, party forever and then see a game in the comfortable confines of a domed stadium or at the very least, southern Florida or any other warm climate area. Imagine the game being played in 20 degree weather, some type of precipation falling and 70 thousand fans being extremely uncomfortable. What kind of half time show are they going to be able to pull off, if the weather is in the 20's?
Then do you think that the quality of the game is going to be on par with a game being played in warmer weather? Nope, not gonna happen.
I think this is the biggest bone head decision the NFL has made in years.
