I dont think we get SB50. Too risky a proposition for the NFL. I know it would be a big event for the city of San Francisco, but holding the 50th SB at an unproven venue is not a safe bet for the NFL. Although Miami has a good track record hosting SBs, weather is always a risk and IMO rainy weather takes away from the Superbowl celebratory effect.
If the NFL was smart, they's put SB 50 in Dallas. Putting aside our hatred for the Cowboys, its the most entertaining venue in the NFL. The stadium is a combo mall, entertainment center, stadium. It would go a long ways in promoting the event internationally.

Considering all the planned technology within the stadium, it actually isn't all that bad an idea.

Dallas isn't even in consideration largely because it was a bit of a disaster when they hosted it last.
I think you're wrong about the NFL not putting it in SF tho for SB50. I think they only reason Miami is in on the process for 50 or 51 is to get people in Miami to start working on the upgrades and roof for that stadium. Its a carrot. They haven't even approved the thing, let alone started building it.
SB50 in SF/SC is a return to California where the FIRST SB was played and will be in a brand spakin' new facility, not a crappy renovation that makes the place look like a toilet.

You're right in that SF is a better venue than Miami. The problem with SF is that it has an unproven track record. Not only that, you're trying to host a SB in a good city with the stadium being offsite. This is where access, transportation, etc. can become an issue. I would love to see a SB in SF, but I think it would be a risk for the NFL to do it. It would be smarter to host it in an indoor venue. Dallas, Houston, or even NO would be good options, although from what everyone is saying...chances are that SF would get it over Miami.

I have no idea where you are getting your transportation, risk, etc. information. Obviously you do not live in the bay area to have any comprehension of traffic in this area of the bay. Getting to/from this place is going to be a breeze...101, 680, 880, 280, 237, and light rail + busses running right down Tasman. Guadalupe Parkway from the West. If you don't know what any of that means, you don't have a clue.
