Whatever.

Its always been a threat. My favorite was Tom Clancy Blowing up half of Denver from the Superbowl with a poorly constructed nuclear device in The Sum of all Fears. Not one of his editors caught the fact that Denver will never host the Superbowl until the allow a coldweather city to host one without a dome.

BTW, the hollywood edited version chose BAL instead. Just goes to show you how poorly edited most movies and books are.

That was Denver? I thought the stadium in that movie was a dome? Unless, they were about as correct with the stadium as they were with where the SB was being played.

Baltimore would be a great destination. I love when they stick the Super Bowl in some lousy city because there's nothing better than seeing the bitter pricks in the media savage the League for two weeks straight.

Book was Denver. I can't remember the movie too well, but I think it was Baltimore.

In the Sum of All Fears...a nuke was set off during the super bowl in denver. I believe the two teams were Minnesota and San Diego...I could be wrong on that...it's been awhile.

In that book Denver was a Domed Stadium.

Stadium in the movie was supposed to be BAL, Stadium in the book was DEN.
Book was written in 1989-90 and published in 1991. This threat is just overhyped because of 9/11.

If they ever put a domed stadium in Denver, I would be in full support of nuking it.

Looks like they got the guy who made the threats, probably a pissed off Packer's fan.

FBI interviews person suspected of stadium threat post

Associated Press



WASHINGTON -- The FBI was interviewing a Milwaukee resident Thursday believed to be responsible for posting what officials think are phony threats on a Web site about radiological dirty bomb attacks on NFL football stadiums this weekend.
The person, described only as a young adult, did not appear to have any ties to terrorist groups, according to a law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing.


The threats, which were posted on the Internet site a week ago, were not seen as credible and were not backed up by intelligence indicating such an attack might be imminent, according to the FBI and the Homeland Security Department.
Homeland Security on Wednesday alerted the NFL and authorities in New York, Miami, Atlanta, Seattle, Houston, Oakland and Cleveland, saying they were acting "out of an abundance of caution."


Homeland Security spokesman Russ Knocke on Wednesday said the threat was viewed "with strong skepticism." Still, the agency contacted the National Football League, local authorities and stadium owners. Also notified was the National Collegiate Athletic Association.
The online posting, dated Oct. 12, was part of an ongoing conversation titled "New Attack on America Be Afraid." It appeared on a Web site, "The Friend Society," that links to various online forums and off-color cartoons. The site's Internet provider declined to comment.


The message said trucks would deliver radiological bombs to stadiums in New York, Miami, Atlanta, Seattle, Houston, Oakland and Cleveland -- and that al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden would claim responsibility.
A dirty bomb would use conventional explosives to scatter radioactive material. Such a blast probably would not cause many deaths, experts say, but the fear of contamination could spark panic. Land and buildings hit with radioactive particles might be unusable for years.
Authorities traced the site's Internet provider to Voxel Dot Net Inc., which has support and engineering staff based in Troy, N.Y. A man who answered the phone at Voxel Wednesday declined to give his name, said he was unaware of the posted threat and refused further comment.
The author of the threats, posted at 9:31 p.m. ET on Oct. 12, identified himself online as "javness."

So if they blow up all the stadiums with all the teams in them does anyone think that Clarett has a chance in the NFL?

Wouldn't the detonation of a dirty bomb in Oakland be sort of redundant?
