A Break From Tradition?
I heard about it this year while watching the Super Bowl but I never really thought it to be a real possibility. Playing the Super Bowl on a Saturday instead of on "Super Bowl Sunday." Now they are talking about it for next year at Giants...er uh...Met Life Stadium.
Really, it makes complete sense particularly since they extended the Super Bowl break to two weeks years back. It has become one of the biggest party days of the year (in my experience surpassing New Year's Eve). Where is the sense in forcing everyone to minimize their enjoyment and struggle to get through the work day on Monday, when they could simply slide it to the day before and let everyone rest the day after.
Thoughts? Great idea or American blasphemy?

I think it is a great idea! Gives folks a chance to relax on Sunday. Watch the replays and yes more commentaries!!!

However, If you're going to bring the Superbowl to a cold city with no dome I think they should play in the elements. Some of the best games in NFL history were played on "frozen tundra" or in the blinding snow like the famous "tuck game" in Foxboro. I hope they don't chicken out and move it for a snow flurry or rain shower. They might as well play two hand touch.
