Always funny, noone cares about american football except americans. Basketball is actually an international sport, football tries cause they know it means more money, yet they continue to fail.

As bad as other countries dog us, the NFL is so connected to the american culture and experience that it will be very very hard for this league to really expand internationally. But I will say this, all it takes is one guy, one european star to all of a sudden make them fans. The team who can find a great european QB will make a ton of money.....opportunity knocking Mr. Jones.....

how do they have the date of two games already? I'm sure I missed something but the schedule isn't due out for a few weeks.

I'm not sure, maybe they schedule the Europe games earlier in order to hype it up or reserve Wembley.

I bet the Brits would prefer a desperation bomb be called the "Big Ben" instead of a "Hail Mary", given their history.

...or the London offensive coordinator post-game saying standing up to the opponents blitz "their finest hour."

Jacksonville has been mentioned a lot as a team that might relocate to London...they could tweak their logo to look like this :D

Hmm

I'm torn between making a post about how everyone thinks the American sporting public is ignorant b/c we don't pay attention to soccer, and saying nothing b/c of how many will say something along the lines of "you're stupid, and compared to the rest of the world we are"

These kids don't know the fundamentals of football, except the one in the Gators shirt...every kid learns the fundamentals of soccer.
