The NFL is now considering not one but two games to be played overseas. Nice...we've already had the major companies outsource jobs overseas and now the NFL? Way to shit all over your fan base!
1) Is there compensation for the home team's season ticket holders whom lose out? Last I checked season ticket prices were rising.
2) Has anyone watched the previous NFL in the UK game and thought, wow, it is great watching a bunch of corporate Euro's strap on my gear and act interested. Hey, is my plasma dying or is that freaking fog?
3) How about the poor dude who slaves away at his job and talked his wife into getting out to watch a game with the guys. He saves up and is jacked up ready to go to the next home game..."oh, shit, this one is in Bulgaria. I'll do the next one....Next one is sold out?" and so it goes, family issues, etc. and he never gets to go to a game this year. Is it just me or in such a short season (for us anyway) does every home game mean something to us? No wonder the commish wants to shorten the preseason and lengthen the regular season. If this is the case he better.
4) How about poor dude who lives out of state and the one time his team is supposed to come to town it's 7,000 miles away.
I know it sound like a bitch rant but wait and see till it happens to you.
