NFL SuperBowl — Page 4

I must disagree with this. And how did you not know where the Ice Bowl took place? Lambeau is the most storied football field in the NFL. Candle Stick isn't even a football field, it's a hybrid. And you still havn't said one work about Soldier Field. The Meadowlands?!? home of the evil Giants and Jets. What is so great about that place. What about a Superbowl at Lincoln Financial Field?

Whatever happened to holding the Super Bowl in nice, temperate-climate cities where the murder rate doesn't equal the birth rate?


Detroit isn't a bad tempature and now were on #2 death rate scale.

Warbler vs Shim 3:

*Warbler beats Shim into submission using rope-a-dope strategy. Shim dies in the ring*

No, but your punctuation sucked something fierce; if you're going to abbreviate because, you need to put an apostrophe in front, like this:
'cause.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

* in emergency they find that shimraa is still alive and recuperate him. 6 months later at Shimraa vs Warbler 4; the fight lasts 15 rounds and ends up being a draw. The shimraa warbler brawls come to end and are recorded as some of the best fights ever seen.
final score 142 - 142. with the last 5 rounds going as follows (shimraa - warbler); (10 - 9, 9 - 10, 10 - 9, 8 - 10, 10 - 9 )

but the rivalry continues.

Never really gave much of a passing care where the Ice Bowl took place. What stood out was the snow and ice, not the stadium. Candlestick may be a hybrid, but it's well known. Of course Soldier Field is well known, but I wasn't going to take the side of my hometeam's stadium. Too subjective. I wanted to remain as objective as possible by pointing out other stadiums aside from the one where my favorite team plays. Objectivity rules in this argument. To you, of course, Lambeau is popular. You live in Wisconsin. You are a lifelong Packers fan. To you, the concept of someone not knowing Lambeau is an impossibility. But guess what? There is a world outside Green Bay. And a vast majority of them have no idea what Lambeau is. It's the truth and you've gotta deal with it.

Who cares if the Meadowlands are the home to the "evil Giants and Jets." It's their home and people recognize the name and who plays there. By that same token, I can say who gives a care about Lambeau as it's the home of the evil fudgePackers. So be careful what arguments you make. While trying to poke holes in other arguments, you are actually poking holes in your own.

ummmmmmmmmm I live in South Jersey. No where near Green Bay. And I have never heard of the Packers being refered to as "evil fudgePackers". As for ignoring Soldier field for reasons of objectivity, I submit that by ignoring Soldier Field you are not being objective. And I would perfer a Superbowl played in hell before one in the Meadowlands.
And maybe you being a bears fan and natural rival of the Packers is clouding you judgment of Lambeau. And being well known does not mean good. The Astrodome was a well known baseball stadium.

EDITED.

You know what? Forget it. It's not worth it. I had a big, long post here decrying things being said as hypocritical. I'm not gonna bother. It will just start a flame war. I'm done. Believe what you all want.

Bye.

Hey Bossk, I sorry if I offended you. I wasn't trying. I was just giving my opinion. Look, if you prefer Candlestick and/or The Meadowlands to Lambeau Field, I'm ok with that. I won't agree with you, but I'll certainly not flame you. And yeah maybe I am bit biased when it comes to hating the Meadowlands. The Meadowlands are in North Jersey and home to the Giants and Jets and I am from South Jersey and am an Eagles fan. Can you really blame me?

Please don't be sore at me.

And that's exactly what I was trying to avoid by not mentioning Soldier, subjectivity. I don't prefer Candlestick or the Meadowlands to Lambeau. I'm just saying that, in the grand scheme of things, I think those two are more recognizable universally than Lambeau is. I've never been to the Meadowlands or Lambeau. I have been to Candlestick and I didn't think it was all that. Still cool to have been there before it was shut down and replaced. But Candlestick has the recognizability due to both baseball and football and the 89 earthquake with the images of pro baseball players helping fans in the stands after the quake hit. That gives it recognition factor.

Meadowlands... I'm not quite sure why it's more popular, but people I've talked to know it. They just do. Dunno why.

I was just remaining objective by not arguing on behalf of my fave team and one that I get emotionally charged about... the Bears and Soldier. That's what objectivity is... removing emotion from a decision or argument and working solely based on facts. I don't know if I could do that with the Bears considering what a fan I am of them. That's just how it is.

I was upset and offended. But I'm not sore. This is something that people get charged about. It happens.

We cool.

Hey Warbler, you might want to get bidding! That is so damn cool. Like the newspapers that read "Dewey Defeats Truman."

I'm glad you are not angry with me. Whatever I said that made you upset with me and offended you(to be honest I am still confused as to what it was), I apologize. As for the stadium issue, I think we will have to agree to disagree. I just like Lambeau better. I like the older fields. And I still think that Lambeau is universally recognizable(imho). And I may be biased, but I just don't see the Meadowlands as anything too special. Its just when I think of great football fields Lambeau and Soldier field make it on the list and the Meadowlands and Candlestick don't. But that is just my opinion

You still havn't answered my question: What about a Superbowl at Lincoln Financial Field?

I'm assuming LFF is where the Eagles play?

Yes, for the past two years. Before that that, they played at the Vet.

The Vet is the name I remember. Is this a whole new stadium or just a rename?
