Weather forecasters call for a Chamber of Commerce week in North Texas. If only the Super Bowl were in Arlington this year instead of last...

But North Texas will get another chance to shine, weather or not.

Super Bowl XLV was marred by ice, snow and a seating fiasco. Despite that, North Texas' first time as host is not expected to be the last.

"I think we'll definitely get another one here," Roger Staubach, chairman of the North Texas Super Bowl XLV Host Committee, said. "I don't know when. The NFL is more involved now in telling the cities when they can get in. I'm not sure. The process has changed a little bit, but we'll get another one here. It turned out to be a great venue. We had a little bad luck there with the seats, [but] that wasn't the host committee's [fault]."

At first, I thought this was about the Cowboys' chances of returning to the Super Bowl. :o:

I'm not going to get my hopes up, it's going to be quite a while before it comes back. Actually I wouldn't be shocked if the game was played outside the United States before it was played in Dallas again.

These things just aren't meant to happen in our area. NBA All-Star weekend in 2010 had pretty bad weather too

I think they give SB 50 to Dallas. What better way to celebrate the Golden Anniversary of the Super Bowl than to have it in the league's premier stadium. I don't think the gaffes from last time will be a hindrance in the process.
