@Mary, I hear you....technically the jets and g-men are new york teams, BUT...superbowl is taking place in the garden state...so a blatant slap in the face for "NY" to be anywhere on the offical superbowl logo But by that rationale, then the Jets and Giants should be the New Jersey Jets and New Jersey Giants, since they play Jersey. As to the Times Square thing, they do that here with the Patriots where they open up broadcasts showing Boston, even though Foxboro is quite a ways from Boston.

I hear ya... it's bugged me for a long time... but Mary and TM are right, that's just the way it is  We lost the Nets, but still have the Devils. And Snookie and The Situation. How special! lol I'm actually shocked that they even mentioned NJ in the logo!!
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

if the weather during the superbowl is ANYTHING like current temp in northern NJ area.....gonna be funniest superbowl ever
for those outside the area...it's 13 degrees and we just got big snowstorm last night
how many warm weather area teams are in the playoffs?
wrote this a few weeks ago today the high is 14 degrees and we had about 8 inches of snow last night nfl "geniuses" are hoping that there isn't a major storm the weekend of the SB I'm so upset over the logo stuff that I'm tempted to toss away all of my current Giants gear with the NY logo

It can take up to 30 minutes to get to your seat in that shitty stadium during a regular game. Wait to these people paying thousands of dollars have to go through the extra security, and have to stand in line for an hour or more in freezing weather to get in.
...Back in the 70's when the Giants moved to Jersey, their excuse for not changing their name from NY to NJ was that their offices were still in NY. thanks never read that before... it's a lie, of course, but had never heard/read the rationale gonna go on ebay and look for nj generals football gear..

http://www.newsday.com/sports/football/s...-snow-1.6635123hilarious game might be played sat or monday ,or the following week if superbowl gets rescheduled because the weather is consistent with how nj is in february.........this will be biggest sports faux pas in a long time I bet that jersey will get top billing then

They should locate and invite THIS guy to the Superbowl real Giants fans know the story for those that don't giants played a saturday game one year...the day or a few days after major snowstorm meaningless game for giants in a bad year, if i recall anyway...some of the rhodes scholars in the seats start throwing snowballs at players and officials a ref gets knocked cold....the einsteins continue to throw snowballs....people get hurt...official carted off field very ugly ugly scene played before a national audience.. the guy in the picture becomes focal point and scapegoat for the entire ordeal picture in paper.name revealed, fired from job...etc definitely banned for life from giants stadium think it would be good gesture to have him in metlife stadium for the superbowl
