Awarding Supe XLVIII

The awarding of Super Bowl XLVIII will come at the owners meeting on May 25, according to their just-released agenda. Of course, by now we all know the new Meadowlands Stadium is in the running. And if Woody Johnson can keep his mouth shut and his temper in check for the next couple of weeks, the new joint might just have a shot.

It's not a sure thing, however. South Florida and Tampa Bay are also in the mix. And a lot of those owners are stuck on the idea that the Super Bowl should be played under ideal conditions.

I say "Hooey!" to that. Nothing wrong with a big game played in the elements. As for all the corporate non-fans who buy those Super Bowl tickets, let'em freeze.
