- insidein, on 01/31/2009, -0/+13I would consider it a challenge, but I'm sure there's not many budget constraints.
- anklesnap, on 01/31/2009, -1/+12what an IT nightmare that must be!
- nick2, on 01/31/2009, -1/+9Explain the Minnesota Vikings then...
Or how about the Carolina Panthers?
Or how about the New England Patriots? They're named after a region... - supermanly, on 01/31/2009, -1/+9Carolina Panthers?
Minnesota Vikings?
Tennessee Titans?
New England Patriots? (region, neither state nor city)
edit: nick2 beat me to the punch on all but Tennessee - Cubeforce, on 01/31/2009, -0/+5It is indeed. American Football is huge in the States though!
- spony99, on 01/31/2009, -1/+5nfl IT: please talk to cnn on how they handled the barack obama inauguration
- twiztidsinz, on 01/31/2009, -0/+4Nothing there..... EXCEPT FOR ZOMBIE MCCAIN!
- twiztidsinz, on 01/31/2009, -0/+3Why are they the "New England Patriots" when "New England" is neither a city nor state?
- Shawon, on 01/31/2009, -0/+1They're named after Washington D.C., not the state of Washington. But yea I don't think D.C. is considered a city is it?
- AnGryTreE, on 01/31/2009, -0/+1I imagine the IT team's offensive line sucks pretty bad.
- WickedKoala, on 01/31/2009, -0/+1They have a superiority complex.
- RodBorn, on 01/31/2009, -1/+2so?
I also hear the sound of the ocean in a sea shell when I put it next to my ear. - teh_spazz, on 01/31/2009, -2/+3I wish I was there :nerdgasm:
- atlquaker, on 01/31/2009, -1/+2helping us see Kurt Warner giving Jesus shout-outs in HD
- cmajewski, on 01/31/2009, -1/+2FTA - "That team was tasked with creating a complete IT operation for Super Bowl XLIII in a matter of weeks". Why? Is the date and location of the Super Bowl not known very far in advance? ...http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/futuresites
I highly doubt they are re-inventing the wheel every time they do this. I am sure they take ideas, and setup configurations from previous years... - bullhead2007, on 01/31/2009, -1/+2dagamer your statement shows you obviously know nothing about Arizona.
- charlesray, on 01/31/2009, -2/+3The Daytona 500 absolutely does not draw more viewers than the Super Bowl. Super Bowl XLII had 65% of households watching; the 2008 500 had 20%. It's not even close.
- HappyScrappy, on 01/31/2009, -0/+1Actually, the third team would be the refs you see on field.
Maybe the IT team is 4th. - twiztidsinz, on 01/31/2009, -0/+1What is D.C. if not a city?
A hamlet? A burg? Village?
I think the bigger question is why is our nations capital located in a district of Colombia? MIRITE?? - CrikeyMike, on 02/02/2009, -0/+1Shame Comcast could not get its IT house in order for the big game.. see: How the Super Bowl Got an X Rating http://www.pcworld.com/article/158716/how_the_supe ...
- gdo01, on 01/31/2009, -2/+32008 Daytona 500: 17.8 million viewers, the second highest rated Daytona 500 ever with 33.5 million watching part of the race
http://www.scenedaily.com/news/articles/sprintcups ...
Super Bowl XLII: 97.5 million viewers with 148.3 million watching part of the game

- VcTrMASO, on 01/31/2009, -0/+1They should get a camera guy to follow them around. At least there will be something on tv to flip to that's more interesting than the game.
- doshindude, on 02/02/2009, -0/+1Hello, IT, have you tried turning it off and on again?
- harpoonhank420, on 01/31/2009, -1/+1because they rock
- kotn2012, on 01/31/2009, -6/+6Black and Gold!
- bullhead2007, on 01/31/2009, -2/+2Actually they used to be the Phoenix Cardinals, but they changed their name to Arizona Cardinals some time in the 90s because they never actually played in Phoenix. Their stadium used to be the ASU SunDevil stadium which is in Tempe.

- dagamer34, on 01/31/2009, -4/+3Arizona might as well be a city, there's nothing else in the state really.
- srs144, on 01/31/2009, -2/+1If an article about the superbowl was going to be on digg, this would be it
- SLYK, on 01/31/2009, -4/+2I totally agree. F1 is 100x>NASCAR, but the Daytona 500 draws a bigger viewing audience than the super bowl. And than F1.
And don't pull that football semantics argument. In reference to the article, it's football. - teamr, on 01/31/2009, -7/+4thats what he said. FOOTBALL. It's the word's most popular sport. And definitly more popular than nascar (lowercase for disrespect). And for the record Formula 1 > nascar
- inactive, on 01/31/2009, -5/+1i've been to the hyvee that kurt warner worked at :)
- cowboy86, on 01/31/2009, -6/+1 Why are the Arizona Cardinals named after the state, instead of a city like every other NFL team? I realize they were once the Phoenix Cardinals, and in some other places before that. But what makes them special?
- SLYK, on 01/31/2009, -8/+2NASCAR draws more. So does soccer.
- mkmega, on 01/31/2009, -9/+216 - 14, Cardinals.
You heard it here first folks! - chadsmith729, on 01/31/2009, -13/+5GO STEELERS! Beat them state bird of Ohio!
-Proud Steelers fan.
Oh and what an opportunity for that kid! Lucky man he will be!
