Tampa Bay hosting a Super Bowl with their team in the game doesn't sound remotely fair. Shouldn't the game be moved now that the Bucs have qualified for the game? We know it does not take much to move the location of a game. The excuse for not doing so should not be, "it's too hard to do".

The city of Tampa has likely invested a great deal into preparing for the game. They pick the cities years in advance.

Moving it would be horrible. If Tampa makes it, the AFC can deal with it.

No, a great deal of logistics goes into it.

Granted, with most fans absent, it's easier, but still, you don't take away the prize of a Super Bowl from the city just because their team made it there. It's no more unfair than if Team USA won Olympic basketball gold at home in Atlanta (which it did.)
Shut up, they move games all the time. Tampa can host next year.

Because if they win, they earned it. There's always a possibility of a team playing a Superbowl in their stadium
It should always be in a neutral location. Yes, they have earned the right to play in the Super Bowl but it doesn't have to be in Tampa.

This is going to come down to the end. The packers always get breaks of some sort.

Does TB never use the middle of the field? Reminds me of Dallas....only with a purpose.
