Neutral site means site neutral to both teams. For example, if the game was between WAS and DAL the game could be played in Miami (the 'Fins stadium) or Indianapolis (Colts' stadium).

Also, who gets the seats? Season ticket holders for the "home" team, or is it all up to grabs like the SB? The latter would REALLY stink since the superbowl is usually a lousy crowd since it is more about money than true fans.

Like I said in my first post, the biggest impact would be on the fans. Any serious discussion of change would have to remedy concerns of the fans whose team has home field advantage.
