Stadium Poll

New Orleans learned a valuable lesson in defeat on Tuesday. It's not about the bid -- at least not when there's a new stadium in the mix.

By all accounts, Minneapolis' bid fell well short in almost every way from the ones presented by New Orleans and Indianapolis. It wasn't as financially rewarding or creatively ambitious. And it mattered not.

Few can play Monday morning quarterback better than colleague Peter King of Sports Illustrated. He made an excellent point this week about the NFL's decision. Why couldn't the NFL have just awarded the 2018 Super Bowl to New Orleans and the 2019 game to Minneapolis.

"After Tuesday's announcement, Minnesota bid committee co-chair Marilyn Carlson Nelson said it would have been "very discouraging" for other cities if New Orleans won again to maintain its perfect batting average."

Tighten up Marilyn, is that why your Vikings suck ballz? They are discouraged that other teams are winning more?
