[quote="PurpleMustReign"][quote="CalVike"]The Super Bowl was played outdoors in a cold weather climate and the world didn't end. Chicago, Seattle, Kansas City, Denver, Cincinnati, Cleveland, New England, Baltimore, Washington, Philadelphia here we come! Thankfully, Green Bay is too small.[/quote]
The NFL would LOVE a Super Bowl in Green Bay. [/quote]
Not going to happen. Would require using Milwaukee and Chicago for hotel rooms. Big ticket players who attend Super Bowls would balk at the inconvenience. All the NFL teams who play there even stay 30 miles down the road in Appleton. Green Bay is not a Super Bowl caliber city. It's a fine midwestern city, but far too small to dream of the Super Bowl. And that does not even mention the airport.

Sure they would but it'll never happen. Green Bay doesn't have the accommodations in place to support it
Are you ready for an entire offseason of debate on Manning's legacy? Can you blame tonights loss on him?

Manning's legacy?
record 5 regular season mvp's
record 12 playoff LOSES
he will no doubt be considered one of the greatest regular season qb's of all time.

Very true. Huge talking point. But, I will never understand the "killing legacy" aspect when it comes to current or future events.

The game's defining moments were the confusion and resulting safety on the first play from scrimmage, the INTs by Manning, and Harvin's kickoff return to suck the life out of any possible comeback on the opening kickoff in the second half. It's not looking good for the Manning legacy talk's not dominating the off-season. One can cast blame however one likes, but the far better team won 43-8 is they way I'd look at it. Seattle looked like a far superior team with Percy Harvin in the lineup than without him. It will interesting to see if he can stay healthy next season and make them tough to beat.

As far as Super Bowls go, this had to be one of the most boring. From that first botched snap and safety, Denver looked completely lost out there. Plenty of people will say that Seattle dominated this game, and they did, but Denver didn't really put up much of a fight.
I never pay too much attention to the commercials, but seemed like it was a pretty weak selection this year. I only had a good laugh at one of them: the one with the little dog that had the huge head.

Agreed. I thought that 1st snap would energize Manning. Complete opposite. I'd give the MVP to Bruno Mars.

Yes, but unfortunately 2-5 still beats 0-4 in a row (Bills) and 0-4 (Vikings but not since 1976 season, now one of the longer Super Bowl appearance droughts in the league -- Lions, Browns, and whoever I'm forgetting)

Yes! The Vikings aren't the worst at something!

The hairstyle was great. But let's be honest, he was the most entertaining solo entertainer on that field today.
