cdrudge Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Not to worry For now... From MSNBC: Cities mentioned as hopefuls for the 2014 Super Bowl include Tampa, Fla., and London, which will host a regular-season game for the third straight season when New England plays Tampa Bay on Oct. 25. London officials have been briefed on the Super Bowl bidding process, but the NFL has repeatedly said no serious talks about an international Super Bowl have taken place. It doesn't say who "briefed" London...but it wouldn't surprise me if the NFL was more involved then what they are admitting too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I hate the move, but as a business decision, I think it is pretty smart. Playing the Super Bowl in Europe would generate tons of new fans, some lifelong. If they were ever going to do it, now is the time. It isn't like this decision is going to cost them fans here in the US. We'll still watch ESPN for two weeks and we'll all tune in for the game and commercials. Us traditionalists would be pissed off, but I'm sure we'd all forgive and forget after having to watch baseball all summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jrick35 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 (edited) Palo Alto is much closer to San Francisco than Oakland is to Pasadena. This was before their stay in LA. What about LA Rams v Steelers Super Bowl XIV played in Pasadena? eta - San Fran to Palo Alto = 32 miles, LA to Pasadena = 10 miles Edited May 20, 2009 by Jrick35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pope Flick Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Something mentioned locally - and it might just be a pipe dream, but part of the 'need' to bring a team back to LA sooner rather than later is the idea that LA hosting Super Bowl 50 - which would be "L" - would be an NFL marketing dream....and hosting SBs is the cash cow for the NFL.
