>>I'm currently searching (to no avail) for a vanity started last week that hypothesized on this exact scenario. The poster laid out an incredible argument with more detail (and plausibility) than Mr. Farah's bulletin. IIRC, it was moved to Bloggers and Personal. Still looking....
Think this is it:

We can only hope and pray that the 63 year old Jagger won't do any bump and grind before the audience of 16 year old adolescents.
If there is an attack, it won't likely be in Detroit. That would set the Islamization of America back 20 years.
Put Payton Manning under surveillance, he's a choker....
Yes, that's it! Thank you. I'm posting a few paragraphs to show the detail freeper, 1curiousmind, put into the post.
Snip:
Notice that I didn’t say that the bomb was already in the United States. Because on Feb. 6, 2006 it won’t have to be in the US in order to kill 10’s of thousands of Americans while the whole world is watching. For on that date, Superbowl XL will take place in Detroit, MI at the new home of the Detroit Lions, Ford Field. What has yet to garnish any media attention is the fact that this will be the first time since 9/11 that such a high-profile event with such a concentration of Americans will take place so close to one of our borders.
Ford Field is located less than 2,300 yds from Canada. The Expo Center which will host the NFL Experience for families and children, is located directly on the riverfront, less than 700 yds from the Canadian shore. Windsor hotels and casinos will be jammed packed with thousands of American tourists from every state. The tunnel and bridge connecting the two countries will be at a crawl, cars and buses bumper to bumper along their entire stretch. The game itself will be broadcast live around the world. Even our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan will be tuning in.
Do we even need to pose the question whether Al-Qaeda would see this as a perfect target? There are indications that previous Superbowls may have been unsuccessfully targeted. During the 2003 Superbowl in Houston a Continental flight (CO 1519) from DC to Houston was cancelled at the last minute due to intercepted chatter mentioning the flight number. The plane was due to arrive in Houston mid-way through the third quarter. The 2002 Superbowl in New Orleans was completely swept for bombs, although this was not reported until later.
And then recently, on October 1, 2005, an Oklahoma University student blew himself up outside the UO stadium which was packed with 84,000 fans. The act was ruled a suicide unrelated to terrorism, although a secondary device was exploded by authorities and his apartment was found loaded with explosive chemicals known to be used by Al-Qaeda. The student, Joel Hinrichs , also had been active at the Norman, OK mosque also frequented by other known terrorists. And his roommate, from Pakistan, had purchased an airline ticket to Algeria. The roommate was interviewed and released.
When Peyton gets hit...his "happy feet" get going!
THAT'S IT!!! Excellent read!
Comcast Cable and Bridges TV Announce Network Details in Detroit on Dec. 17
DETROIT, Dec. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Bridges TV, the first American Muslim
television network, has launched in southeast Michigan on Comcast, the nation's largest cable company with nearly 22 million customers. Details of the channel and the launch will be discussed during a media availability on Friday, Dec. 17, 2004 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Dearborn, MI, at 10 a.m.
The historic launch marks Detroit as the first cable market in the country to broadcast Bridges TV. Bridges TV is a subscription-based network that targets primarily the
8 million Muslims of North America and features English language programs focused on celebrating the American Muslim lifestyle and culture.
Bridges TV CEO and founder Muzzammil Hassan noted that the launch of Bridges TV in Detroit is significant because the largest concentration of Muslims in the United States live in Detroit and more than two thousand households in Detroit have already pledged support for the network.
During a drive to Detroit, Hassan and his wife Aasiya Zubair were disturbed by derogatory remarks about Muslims on a radio talk show. Zubair, who was pregnant at the time, worried that her child would grow up watching
Muslims mainly portrayed as terrorists or insurgents.
She encouraged her husband to start a network of his own to portray Muslims in a positive light. After three years of research and development, Hassan launched Bridges TV
nationwide in November.
"It seems fitting that Detroit is the first cable market to carry Bridges TV since it is here where the idea was born and initial research was done," Hassan said.
"Muslims in the Detroit area are doing so much for their city.
Through the support of Comcast Cable and the forum of Bridges TV, we can share the stories of service and accomplishments of Detroit Muslims with our entire
nation," he added.

Didn't they say this last year? Don't they say it every year on New Year's Day, Superbowl Sunday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, during the Olympics, and Christmas?
Suppose there was a sniper at the Super Bowl?
"Didn't they say this last year? Don't they say it every year on New Year's Day, Superbowl Sunday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, during the Olympics, and Christmas?"
...and your point would be???
Well...at least THEY don't have "wardrobe malfunctions".
Other than the specific threat in the videos to hit US targets, I would think that the Torino olympic games will be as if not more likely a target. Reports say that security there is also very tight.
Wasn't there a 70's movie about possible terrorism at a Super Bowl? It featured the Steelers as one of the teams ...
In other words, no big difference. All zombified.
Is Janet Jackson going to be there??
At the same time he is also still waiting for a Iranian EMP strike and the 30+ Al-Qaeda nukes ready to go off all @ once in the U.S.
I'm guessing No, she won't get invited again.
They forgot to mention that the DVD of "Black Sunday" Osama checked out from Blockbuster is overdue.
