Goodell wants more games and a franchise in UK....

LONDON -- NFL commissioner Roger Goodell expects the league to start playing multiple regular-season games in Britain in the next few years -- an expansion that could lead to putting a franchise in London.

Goodell said Friday that "every indicator" shows the British market can support more games and that having a franchise here is of "tremendous interest" to the league. But he stopped short of giving a timeline for expanding the NFL's overseas presence.

Goodell is a joke of a commissioner.

Let's just pretend for a second that this actually happens....

Their miles traveled will make even Seattle's look like a joke.

I know thats why I called Goodell a joke. How the hell he think's a west coast team can travel all the way to Britain and still have time to prepare against their opponent and not suffer during the game 'cause of jet lag is beyond me.

I don't know. If I'm the commissioner and on my list of things to do is to go international...

Wouldn't you first think about maybe Canada (Toronto?) or Mexico even?.. before you thought about Europe?

People get crazy hype over there about the Pats coming or something because it's one game. Supporting their own team? Doubtful.

Thats like if Chelsea and Man Utd played a game over here in NYC and it generated interest so the Premier League wanted to start a team over here..

Just a terrible idea for many reasons

what about hockey in the sunbelt then? do you have a prob with that?

not really a prob...but I think places like Winnipeg and Hamilton could support a team better than alot of those locations. The NHL has proven to be quite successful in many US cities...and let's not forget, the original 6 had 4 US based teams...they've been a big part of hockey since day one!

    • BPA! If that happens to be D-line, sobeit. FA has to figure in somewhere as well.
    • Chinn’s current stats are in line with his stats with Panthers before Evero arrived, and yes he regressed from his rookie year where he looked like a game changer. He is not putting up drastically different numbers now he just looks better on a winning team. We were all disappointed with his development even prior to Evero but he was definitely a misfit in the 3-4 defense.
