Give people time to prepare and evacuate and not sit in hours-long traffic to do so. Allow emergency personnel to be focused on the hurricane rather than the football game. Prevent unnecessary travel into a bad situation, making it worse for all involved.

Just a guess.

Exactly. Contraflow would not start until Nagin orders a voluntary evac right? Which is 30 hours out right?

So let's see, Sometime late Sunday night contraflow will start and we're considering cancelling or moving the game up? People will have at least 24 hours to get back south and pack their cars and get out of dodge.

Plus, WE DON"T EVEN KNOW IF IT IS COMING HERE!!! The damn cone is still almost 600 miles wide.
