Default A Major European Coup Brewing

The Superbowl in London??? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/othe...ll/8016358.stm

Quote:

The NFL has had "substantive talks" with officials in London about holding the Super Bowl in the city, a senior league official has told BBC Sport. While commissioner Roger Goodell has previously admitted an interest in bringing the game to London, this is the first confirmation of discussions.
I sincerely hopes this falls through. I have no problem with London or the Brits, but American Football is manifestly an American game, through and through. To make its biggest event (which involves only American teams no less) occur outside our borders is just wrong.
