Northern Mexico, Baja California, Chihuahua, Sonora etc follow the NFL, probably even more than Soccer, you start getting South of the border states, they could care less.

You are correct, it was Brian Billick and it was the old Veteran's Stadium in Philly but it was a pre-season game not a regular season game.

Just look at the condition of the field, that's how much they care about the NFL. Instead they are rushing to put a bandaid on it. You can't polish a turd.

What a stupid comment

Thanks! Glad you appreciated it!

Why can’t they just throw down some artificial turf on top of the field?

That seems...naive...at best.

Not to mention that I personally have no idea why she thinks a business interruption policy would be willing to pay out for an issue that has to have been known for weeks.

As I understood it, the field condition is due to a concert that happened this week. I'm also not sure why they'd be reimbursing for travel.

And no, I don't think the NFL would move the game and give all the money to charity. I do think they wouldn't lose nearly as much as you think they would. I do think it's laughable for any of us to pretend we have ANY idea what their insurance policy looks like.

And I do think that the NFL could take a break from their usual toothless propaganda to do something useful for millions of people in a state they make a shit ton of money off of.

Look, if you're not going to actually pay attention before spouting off nonsense, then there's no point in having a discussion about it.

1. The damage was caused by a Shakira concert on October 11th.
2. The tweet I replied to suggested that "Those who bought tickets would get refunds and there’s business interruption and other insurance to assist w/ reimbursements, etc." I'm not sure what reimbursements she would be referring to aside from travel expenses.
3. The tweet I replied to suggested that they should "donate proceeds to support those impacted by and those fighting the fires."

So you blast me for suggesting her plan is unrealistic, then acknowledge that you had no idea how long they've known about this and that you don't really think they should do the things she suggested they do. Forgive me for not giving your thoughts much credence here.

They do that at Arrowhead sometimes. Not really that big of a deal if the grass is in good shape otherwise.
