Yeah. Maybe we need to make the NFL more like Canadian football. Open up the field a little bit.
Yes the field is a bit wider too. It’s been so long I don’t remember the last time I watched a game. Pretty much everything else is about the same as the US game. Mostly it is made up of players who couldn’t make the NFL but only half of the roster. The other half have to be Canadians IIRC.
Doesn’t matter...don’t watch it anyway.
I wish we could have unbiased research into CTE.
Do you remember when Obama bashed football, and said no child of his would ever play football?
My bet would be on some Islamic country coming up with enough cash to buy the game.
But they’d better leave the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders behind for that venue.
**Except maybe for London. So London may be the only city that can host the Super Bowl at this point. Remember they need luxury boxes.**
I’d think not-don’t know why
**My bet would be on some Islamic country coming up with enough cash to buy the game.**
If it’s money they’ll get it.
Qatar can do that. But the NFL will say no. The Muslims are not wild about alcohol.
VIPs want to drink booze in their luxury box.
There’s only two locations that would fit....UK (London) and Germany (Berlin/Frankfurt/Munich). They can fill a stadium completely. Time-zone-wise, it works as well....evening game in Europe...showing at 2 PM in the US. I’d also guarantee that more than half the seats would be occupied by Americans who either live in Europe or will fly over for the event.
CONGRATULATIONS!
You missed the point entirely.
That's how they do it in the CFL. I like the idea of a touchback being one point.
Soon it will be held the Sunday before the President’s Day holiday on the following Monday. (Third Monday in February)
Why should I care? The NFL sucks.
Well, when Wimbledon is played in Forest Hills, NY and the Masters goes on tour in Middle East (check out that sand trap!), we can consider it.
Then I can not watch it played in a foreign country rather than not watching it played in this country.
...we need an All American League...
The AAL.
North Korea—give the creep Goodell a one way ticket to negotiate with the Commies—and don’t rescue him after they throw him in a dungeon!
That sums up my thoughts perfectly, thanks.
“If we get it right, the league will flourish like never before,” he hinted.”
A said is a hint?
Because it’s fading.
