Well, that was fast...  Pasadena takes itself out of the running...  From "The REAL Feed":

Pasadena city council votes against potential NFL stadium site (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2005/football/nfl/wires/06/07/2020.ap.fbn.nfl.pasadena.1st.ld.writethru.0411/index.html)
SI.com: NFL (08.06.2005 00:12)

It's something (finally) seeing all these new-fangled stadium projects getting rejected.  After the boom in the 90's, it's kind of refreshing (although it may be indicative of our sour economy).  I'm the kind who likes the history Wrigley Field, Yankee Stadium, et al. bring with them.
