Why do U.S. sports league hate U.S. fans? And don't even say the NFL is the worse - the NBA would strangle every fan they have for more access to the Chinese market. It's only a matter of time that they have "Kill a Uyghur" night at halftime.

It’ll go to PPV eventually.

The NFL will never overtake soccer in Europe.

Looks like we need an All American League and then we can kick the NFL to the curb

The game has not been for the fans for many years.

Dublin or Rio? Nobody in either of those places gives a hoot about American football.

Goodell is a globalist. :)

Goodell wishes Whitney Houston was still alive to sing the the Turkish national anthem.

That’s true. I stopped caring about the national felon league after the domestic violence incidents involving Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson.

Fine by me. Offer it to the highest bidder. It’s the NFL that benefits, not us. Think February. It’s pretty cold here everywhere except in the southern US. Somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere would really dig the exposure as well as the tourism. Buenos Aires-a gift to Javier Milei.

I watched in person the Chiefs play the Rams in the Berlin Olympic stadium in 1990.

It was hilarious watching the Germans try to do “the Wave”.

Did they say “Sieg Heil” while doing it?

How hot would Rio be in early February? That’s summer there.

August 1983, Cardinals vs Vikings, Wembley stadium, London. First football game in England. It was a blast. The Brits loved it.

Preseason? I don’t remember any games overseas until the 80’s or 90’s.

Yep, to the point where about half of all NFL fans are now women. No wonder he’s paid $64 mil per year by the owners.

Agree. NFL is boring a hell nowadays, too. 4 hours of snoozefest. Reporter-ettes blabbing on the sideline, endless commercials, replay upon replay, timeouts, reviews, multi-national anthems.

NFL can go the way of Noosecar. American men are tired of it.

Sydney, Aus. Good for tourism. Problem is they’d have to waive their visa requirements. Their covid response was stupid too.
