re: Brees: New stadiums becoming crucial for cities to land Super Bowls

I love Tiger Stadium, but there is a huge disparity between the expected features of a professional football stadium and a college football stadium. I know a few Saints fans in the NO area (that aren't LSU, or really college football fans) that had to go here after Katrina and they were kind of shocked at the "bare-bones" experience. Of course it wasn't a shock to me because I understood the difference, but hearing those grown men whine about minor issue x, y, z was quite hilarious.

I don't really know what they are going to do to be honest. If that's the rule to get a Super Bowl I really don't think support can be garnered to achieve this. A lot of people in LA have similar thoughts that I listed above about public funds being used for essentially private use. I mean the Dome is fine, the renovations helped a lot. Yes, there are some things that still need to be done, they need to expand the bathrooms and the large display in the middle would be good to probably get at least another Super Bowl bid. I think they still need to replace the upper-level seats. But this is all stuff that can be done in the off-season in the next couple of years.
