Roof will be closed
They have announced that the roof will remain closed for Super Bowl XLII. Some writers think that they may open it up for the flyovers, then close it, but that seems odd.
A few players have taken the field and are doing light warmups. Richard Seymour and Tedy Bruschi have come on the field with their kids. Jared Lorenzen is throwing warmup passes. I've seen a lot of hugging going on between players, which I suspect doesn't happen two and a half hours before a regular season game.
It is hard for me to wait at this point, so I can only imagine what its like for the players and coaches. The Super Bowl is played by different rules than a regular season game because of all the waiting; The time between warmups and the game starting, and the length of the the commercial breaks and halftime shows.
Bill Belichick fed the team before the game last year and I wonder what is on the menu today. The all important press brunch starts in 30 minutes.
