dwight in philly Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 how much greedier can the NFL get? the allure of watching a game is about rooting interest, tradition. apparently none of that means anything, just max out the bucks, anyway they can be gotten.

They are trying to get a rooting interest and tradition built up in another part of the world. What's wrong with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Kinda funny how the 2 worst NFL franchises of the last decade are the ones representing the NFL internationally. Next, the Browns to Mexico? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 One of the possible scenarios for re-location I have heard is the Rams move back to LA and one of the Cali teams also re-locates there. Then, the Jags move to St. Louis because their new owner has midwest roots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGUN34 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 There is a big fan base over here in the UK and we are grateful for any games that are played over here.Whether the NFL has a vision for worldwide football or its all about the money is open for debate but we will take it all the same!

Mark Vader Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 It's official: Rams Vs. Patriots http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/37539/patriots-play-rams-in-u-k-in-2012 So naturally this means after the London game the Patriots will get their bye week, and their following opponents will be the Bills.

silvermike Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Maybe they should just stick the Pro Bowl there. That way, in a game where all the best players find an excuse and the rest go at 80% can be played in beautiful London in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGUN34 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Couldn't we just send arena football players over there? They wouldnt know the difference 20 years ago the majority of uk fans obviously had very little in-depth knowledge of the game.This is not the case anymore as Tv coverage,NFL Europe league and a thriving amateur league over here has led to a solid fan base of knowledgable followers.I sat with a guy who was over from Buffalo at the London game this year and he was really supprised at the level of knowlwedge of the supporters over here.Hats off to the NFL for the way they have promoted the sport around the world.As I said earlier we are still not sure what the motives are but it is certainley not doing the game any disservice.
