Is anyone else getting tired of the Super Bowls being played in the same places year after year? I am... I don't care if the weather is warm...or how big a stadium is... I think the Super Bowl should rotate through each and every venue in the league.

Well, you're in luck...next year's Super Bowl is supposed to be in New York City (well...New Jersey).

As for the real reason why they don't play the Super Bowl in places like Cleveland, Minnesota, Green Bay, Boston, etc., it's not the quality of the game. It's because the sports media will whine their asses off that it's cold. The celebrities who come for all of the parties won't be able to wear their skimpy dresses, because it's cold. The players would gladly show up and play in any weather, I'm sure (it's the Super Bowl, after all); it's the other people who would whine and bitch and moan. And if there's less of a party or a negative perception of the Super Bowl, advertisers won't be as interested (AS interested...there will still be lots of advertisers ponying up lots of money).

Hypothetical:

Anchorage Alaska gets a NFL team... and builds an open stadium.

I can't predict what will happen in New Orleans.

Another reason is that many cities don't have the infrastructure to support a Super Bowl. Green Bay for instance doesn't have near enough hotel rooms need to host a game like that.The airport in Green Bay would be stressed to its limits.

In favor of SF:

(1) Versatile Read Option offense presenting a formidable, hard to defend two-way offensive threat.

(2) Rugged physical defense capable of stuffing the run.
-----

In favor of BAL:

(1) An intangible will to win coming from senior members of the team hungry for a title: Anquan Boldin, Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Terrel Suggs, and Bernard Pollard.

(2) Joe Flacco has more experience than Kaepernick and a once-in-a-lifetime chance to shut up the rotisserie critics who fawn over BRADY, BREES, ROGERS, and MANNING.

(3) A better FG kicker than SF's troubled Akers.
