Most annoying aspect of this game in Brazil

[Forneymike]

Yes. They did not give you a discount on your season tickets and kept home games at 8 instead of adding a home game 9.

I understand the international money grab. But who loses when a team plays a game outside of the US. US citizens and US economy.

They only played 8 games at home last year and I paid for 8.....why would they give me a discount this year? They charge me for the games I go too...are you saying because they travel international, they should discount the 8 games I go too?

I'm confused on this topic. All business try to maximize their revenue and cut their costs. The company you work for does the same thing. Many American companies do business and sell things internationally. This isn't a new concept

I hate international games with a passion. We all know the NFL is full of it when they say they want to expand the game. I don't know why they just don't play the game in a state that doesn't have an NFL team (probably greedy owners). Most states have college stadiums that can hold crowds equivalent to an NFL crowd.

It’s to expand the market for the nfl. So it’s about money

So putting a team in London makes them fly to the states eight or nine times a year for away games.

Meanwhile there are still division games like Bengals-Browns and Giants-Commanders that require next to no travel. Sounds fair.

This isn’t about putting teams in these countries. It’s about building fans who watch the game. It’s about making money

I don't think I red were the most annoying thing was about this game I think it might be the field the travel and the fact that it was supposed to be a Cowboys home game but they are have only had to do this twice other teams have had to do it much more I agree I'd rather see them play at home right now it would have a better advantage and maybe a big a better chance to beat the Ravens if it was at home in front of AT&T crowd right now we're giving away a home game for this that's the biggest annoyance for me..

Porque o Brasil também tem torcedores dos Cowboys!

Sorry, my wife is Brazilian.

Some fan going tot he game posted pics of the stadium. Looks like a total dump.

It sort of does but I remember when some of the older NFL stadiums before everyone started building a new one including Texas Stadium you could find areas of it that you didn't want shown on TV or whatever with your own smartphones nowadays it would look pretty bad inside the bathroom some of the other places so I wouldn't call that a dump I'd say that they don't have the money to make True NFL Stadium but there have been some aging NFL stadiums that look pretty bad.. Wasn't there one I don't know if it was the old Giants place Or it might have been the Browns they said they constantly had sewer backups it it was nasty but yeah I mean you can find it if you want to..


Since they're only playing there this is kind of like when you go to international destination you stay at the resort they say to stay at the resort for a reason If you watched going from the airport to your resort it definitely looked like a 3rd world country you wouldn't want to be roaming around in but the resort was wonderful Well these people live there I don't think they see that as a dump as long as the players are staying at the nicest place they could be staying making sure their food is prepared by their own people don't drink the water all that kind of stuff I mean as long as the field is good it should be fine..

You know that's how it looked at Candlestick Park right You remember that game they lost they got down by I know 10 points 13 points to San Francisco that's how they always look

So yeah NFL Stadiums used to have that too so think of it as a throwback..

Will say the picture on Google look much better. Kind of cool with the hole in the roof.

It is about money and NFL owner stupidity.

so....i lived in baltimore for 10 years, i would wager that where they are in Brazil is probably safer for the players than if it was in Baltimore
