So you're short on grammar and have a bad penis?

Ohhh his grammar is good. I will never forget when DeAngelo was signing autographs and chckwing drunk ass start yelling "Deangelo, you think you going to get off the bench today?"...  DeAngelo gave us a death stare, stopped signing autographs and left.  Good times.

And this is why they will never allow Mr. Richardson to host a Super Bowl at BOA.

Sucks...he did everything they ask as far as the size of stadium they required, but the ice storm in Detroit one year (even though it's a dome stadium) made sure Charlotte will never be a SB city.

Um,,,, wasn't last year in NJ at the Meadowlands???  Worse weather there in Jan usually than CLT.

They just had it in New Jersey two years ago

That was a favor to NY/NJ for what they went through during 9/11 from what I've read. And I could be wrong about all the other ice-storm SB's - sounds like there were several - but it makes the point - we'll never host one - ever. Just look at the weather now to understand why. Plus, I'm not sure we even have enough hotel space. I live in Guilford Co. and could host a few folks, if it would help, though.

I don't think hotels would be an issue now (maybe 6-7 years ago before the DNC) but the weather is too much of a concern.

I suspect mass power outages are coming. I'll have to scramble to watch the game somewhere.

I live in Greensboro and they are calling for anywhere from 6 to 12" of snow to even more coupled with around a quarter to a half an inch of freezing rain. Seems like they always miscalculate the snow and the ice is always worse. I live out in the sticks and I'm considering buying a generator in case the power goes out for an extended period of time just to watch the game.

Because Wikipedia is always right:

The NFL requires that a Super Bowl hosting stadium must have an average temperature of 50° or higher in February or be held in an indoor climate-controlled facility. However, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell waived this requirement. The stadium was allowed on the ballot because of a "unique, once-only circumstance based on the opportunity to celebrate the new stadium and the great heritage and history of the NFL in the New York region".
