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. |
Thats totally the wrong attitude. You would be suprised just how many NFL fans are here in the UK and throughout Europe.
I remember reading that after the success of the regular season games in Wembley, there were talks about London getting its own team and the NFL becoming more international, but I doubt thats going to happen anytime soon after the closure of NFL Europe.
Why not let Britain experience the magic of the Superbowl up close? The event might even teach our goddamn soccer fans how to properly behave at a sporting event.
