    Which do you prefer; a cold weather or a warm weather superbowl?

    "Cold Weather," "Warm Weather," or "I Don't Care" (or mix it up; same thing)

    I'd love to have it in Cold Weather. It truly separates the tougher team (ala Vikings, Colts, Saints etc.).

    Cold weather would make it feel more like a football game and less like the Oscars, which isn't a bad thing.

    The game should be played in in the stadium of the team who has the better record between them. They need to reward teams for winning during the regular season.

    I agree, but that won't happen unless by coincidence. There's so much preplanning that goes into a Super Bowl, the logistics would be impossible. It's either downsize the event, which they will never do, or choose the location in advance.

    Cold weather, get rid of pussy teams like the Dolphins, Buccaneers, Chargers and all. Plus the game is a joke, its a celeb fest like MTV. I hope it's more of a football game not 1 million commercials look who's playing at half-time crap. They need to have a real football game.

    Who actually watches the Super Bowl?

    I think it's the most boring football game of any; including the preseason.

    I wouldn't really care. I just want to see a good football game, whereever it's played.

    I picked I don't care because I want to see it switched up. There are teams of all styles in the NFL and the only fair way to do it would be to have it in say San Diego one year then Pittsburgh then a dome like Indy then Miami then Seattle and so on. By always putting it in cold weather places it gives a huge advantage to teams like the Steelers or Browns and they could win it without being the most talented team. The same goes to an advantage for Miami and San Diego if it's always warm weathered. Keep it constantly changing.

    That is a good idea in theory... but when a team wins a few SBs in a row they'll get it in their stadium year after year and the home-field advantage will make it harder to knock them off. In other words, "dynasties" would be made easier.

    While it may be true about the advantage to hold the title, the idea of going into someone else house and bringing the title home is epic. And besides you still have to run the gammit of the playoffs. That ain't easy at all. Plus FA still doesn't garauntee that you will have the same personell so having a true dynasty year in and out is still hard to do. NE has really screwed people's minds up that making a dynasty in this FA age is easy.

    Also, it wouldn't happen every year which keeps the variety up and gives the champ something to shoot for on the repeat. All these one and done's might have better focus throughout the season. Maybe.

    I think it's a manly idea. IMHO

    P.S.
    I voted for cold

    Not just because I'm from wisconsin, but I just think football should be played in the cold anyways.

    The Title Game should be in warm weather with very low chance of snow, I dont wanna see a game won or lost because of weather.
