[QUOTE="soberups, post: 933839, member: 14668"] Change #1--Eliminate the empty week between the AFC/NFC championship games and the Super Bowl. All of the hype gets old, and the teams lose their rythm and get rusty with a one week layoff. Play the damn game already and quit making everybody wait. Change #2--Eliminate the Pro Bowl. Nobody gives a damn about this game, including the players. They dont want to get hurt. They are playing at half speed, its not a "real" game, they might as well be running around with no pads playing flag football. Change #3--Play the Super Bowl on a Saturday, not a Sunday. The Super Bowl has become a de facto national holiday. People who dont even like football watch it because they want to see the funny commercials. Everybody hosts parties where people get drunk. The game doesnt end until 9:00 or later on the East coast. If the game was on a Saturday, people could sleep off their hangovers the next day instead of calling in sick to work on Monday morning and screwing over those of us who [I]do[/I] show up. Change #4--Either play the game at the home field of the team with the best record, or let [I]every[/I] city with an NFL team take turns hosting it. Dont limit the venue to domes or warm-weather stadiums. I dont [I]care[/I] if its 20 below zero in Green Bay or Chicago or Buffalo, [I]real[/I] fans can bundle up and deal with it just like the players will. Football is a [I]mans[/I] game, it gets played in the mud and rain and snow and freezing cold, and the Super Bowl shouldnt be an exception. Lambeu field in Green Bay has been sold out for the last 100 years and you might as well be at the North Pole when you attend a game there in December. Green Bay deserves a Super Bowl as much as any other NFL city does! Change #5--The halftime show should be performed by a local high school marching band. I'm tired of 25 minute halftime rock concerts. Its a football game not a variety show. I want to see [I]football[/I], not Janet Jacksons boobs. Halftime is supposed to be a 15 minute break in the game where the teams go into the locker room and get their asses chewed out by the coach while fans go to the bathroom, run to the store for more beer, and call Dominos for another pizza.
