Call it the "Super" Super Bowl


Finally the NFL got it right! The Super Bowl is already the country's biggest sporting event, and now it's only going to get better (well, in 2014 it is). The biggest stage in the National Football League was always reserved for warm-climate, perfect weather cities and often featured dome stadiums. Yes, I know the NFL wants to allow their best players a chance to thrive under the best conditions. But why make any changes from the rest of the playoffs? Some of the greatest games in NFL history have been played in the rain, muck, and snow! That Patriots '01 journey was marked by that nail-biting epic at Foxboro in the heavy New England snow. The NFL is a rough-and-tough league throughout the entire season, and now they're finally bringing that mentality with them to the Super Bowl. So, Goodell, you did good kid, you did good.

Note: I'm calling it right now. The 2014 Super Bowl will pit that Patriots up against the Giants, and Brady will lead his underdog Patriots to a stunning upset over the heavily favored Giants playing in their home stadium. That'll be Brady's way of saying "fuck all you Manning-lovers, I'm the greatest of the generation!" It'll be Brady's last hurrah. He'll retire to pursue an acting career and chase down an Oscar he was owed long ago after being stiffed for his Earth Day commercial.
