You know what kind of shape our guys would be in after so many international flights, and major time zone/date changes? No way.

The NFL wouldn't stand a chance overseas. They would get totally wiped out by soccer. Soccer is far more popular than football. Ask Psicosis.

Lets get a team in Louisville first.

Prince22 08-07-2005 10:53 PM

Shit, we don't even have a team in L.A.

No freakin way. That's what NFL Europe is for. We don't need to spread the NFL any thinner than it already is.

International perspective:

I think realistically what is going to happen is you'll have a couple of regular season games going overseas in the next few seasons, just to test the water abit. There is supposedly big talk of a regular season game in Britain next year. In fact, it's been said that it would have been the game that's in Mexico this year (that's right isn't it?), but because of the time difference problems it was put off. I think there was also problems with finding a stadium, as most of the biggest stadiums here are for soccer and aren't wide enough. Anyway, I think the long term plan is probably to make NFL Europe into a proper league, rather than bring any regular NFL team into Europe, because the time difference problem cant really be overcome if someones playing a game here every other week.

How would you feel if the Chiefs were in some sort of big playoff game that you wanted to attend and it was in fucking Japan? That would be absolutely gay. Plus, who the fuck would want to play for a team from Japan? Sure, the Japanese guys wouldn't mind..but I'm sure they can't play football for shit.

Yes, I'm sure.

You don't have to ask me, it's flat-out obvious.

Anyways...

I live in Toronto, a true Canadian who loves his country and I'm a huge NFL fan. I would not want the NFL to expand. The National football League doesn't need any more teams nor does Canada need another embarassment like the Expos, Grizzlies or the Raptors.
Canada has the CFL (which in my eyes is a bit of a joke) but, it has history and tradition, and if the NFL expanded north of the border, it may spell the end for the CFL and my hometown's claim to fame the Hamilton Tiger Cats.
The NFL is more than fine the way it is. Toronto doesn't need more overpaid superstars coming up here to do nothing other than bitch about our currency and the metric system - Antonio Davis. And NFL fans to need to be reminded on how the rules work whenever there is a game being shown from another country for the sake of new international fans - Fox with the NHL.
Keep the NFL American. As long as I can still watch it on the tube or make a trip south of the border to catch a game, I'm happy!

Go Chiefs Go! :clap:
