Watching the Super Bowl last night (and crying in my salsa that I lost so..many..bets), I started to look up the ol' XL. I came across the article that said that the NFL partnered with the NAIAS and the city to build a youth education center.

Has any progress been made on this, or has the money 'disappeared'?

This has been built and open for a couple of years now. It is on the site of Herman Gardens off of Tireman.

They put some pretty signs up on a new fence in Herman Gardens.


I went with the Giants, always rooting for the underdog...plus this time it wouldn't have been bad to lose because I'd see history made either way!


What a kick-ass game.

Yeah, should'a looked before I spoke...I went to googlemaps and got a cool streetlevel view of a building with a HUGE football over it's front doors.

So much for the start of this day...heh.


Cheers

Thanks for the info. That football looks mighty tacky though.
