... there are major obstacles ahead. Here are relevant articles:
About New York getting the 2010 Super Bowl and the overall picture -

About the stadium "situation" -

I personally just don't know about this. Once again, it is  -"New Jersey is good... for me to poop on." I am (obviously) all for remembering 9/11 and the fact that New York was our greatest victim along with DC. But, the Big Apple has bigger fruit to dry! The economy is weak. They're closing schools, fire houses, etc., and yet discussing the building of a sports complex downtown (on the west side). I understand the counter-arguments about the project's bringing in jobs and such and the team's bringing in significant revenue in the long run, but what about East Rutherford, NJ and the fantastic (though old and needing-to-be-brought-up-to-date) sports complex there. If they do go ahead with the stadium project, I just hope they give New Jersey the Giants (even though I hate them). That won't happen, though, even though it would be the equitable, fair thing to do.
I would be interested to hear some of the takes of some other New Yorkers and New Jersians and any other interested parties.
