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

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

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

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”.

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

Like the Olympics, cities don't want to host such sports events.

They lose a fortune for an event that could be televised from anywhere.

Anti-American. Are there no standards any more?

Never mind where the game is being played.

Will they still have commercials?

That's the only reason I ever watch the Super Bowl.

I haven’t watched 1/4 of one game since those thugs started dancing in the end zone 20 something years ago

The NFL is a business ... specifically a partnership with 32 equal partners, the team owners. They hire the commissioner to increase profits ... so he is doing what he is being paid to do ...

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.

Soon it will be held the Sunday before the President’s Day holiday on the following Monday. (Third Monday in February)

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.
