My gut says Atlanta has too much for Gbay, and NE OWNS Pitt..however looking at the big picture.....
The NFL is entertainment, on par with WWE nowadays, Defense is a thing of the past.
Follow the money comes to mind....those SBowl commercials are big bux....
Brady vs Rodgers would be absolute solid gold, record viewership....2 current legends of the game .
Rothlisberg vs Rodgers pretty good match-up of legendary teams.
Rothlisberg (little Shamu) vs Ryan (The pocket statue)....not so much.
Brady vs Ryan? Ho Hum....only reason to watch is to root for Brady getting trophy from commish..
Look what happened when Dallas got ousted to ticket prices....
"The Super Bowl ticket resale market slumped minutes after the Dallas Cowboys lost to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night.
Before Sunday's playoff game, the cheapest ticket to Super Bowl LI on StubHub was $4,195. Shortly after the Cowboys were defeated 34-31 on a field goal as time ran out, the get-in price was down 20 percent to $3,349. Tickets in the lower end zone dropped 18 percent to $4,307.
Ticket brokers had already been benefiting from people speculating that the Cowboys would make their first Super Bowl in 21 years -- and in nearby Houston, no less.
"The threat of the Cowboys playing in a Super Bowl within a four-hour drive of their home stadium was propping up get-in ticket prices to unprecedented levels," said Patrick Ryan, co-founder of Eventellect, a Houston-based ticket distribution company. "Cowboys fans were willing to take the risk of buying tickets and their team not making it because of the uncertainty of what would happen if they did make it."
any thoughts?
