Without committing 1 way or the other, Goodell sounds intrigued by NY Super Bowl

Goodell says NY Super Bowl would be ‘interesting’

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says the prospect of a potentially cold-weather Super Bowl at the new Giants Stadium in 2014 is “interesting” to him.

Goodell adds that there would be real benefits if the owners chose to award that game to the new stadium.

He says being exposed to the elements isn’t necessarily a bad thing, noting “that’s the way the game of football’s played.”

The Giants and Jets want to bring the Super Bowl to their new 82,500-seat stadium in New Jersey in what most certainly would be a chilly NFL title game. The $1.6 billion stadium set to open later this year does not have a retractable roof or a dome.
