It’s Excellent that New York/New Jersey Will Host Super Bowl XLVIII

I was very happy yesterday as I listened to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announced at 4:17 PM that New York/New Jersey will host Super Bowl XLVIII in February 2014 at the new Meadowlands Stadium. There was a lot of pro New York City sentiment after September 11th for a Super Bowl, Giants Stadium being the only option at the time. It took a simple majority and four votes to get the win. The only mistake I made was listening to the “experts” on sports radio beforehand yapping about how it’s a shoe in. The reality is that it most often goes to four votes. I am glad Tampa Bay or Miami didn’t get it again as well as so many have been played there already. Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey said it may bring $500 Million dollars to the area.
