    How long before they try to grow the game in Europe by making the Superbowl their annual game at Wembley?

    I think Americans would cause a hell of a lot of trouble if they moved the Superbowl to Wembley. Plus the NFL cities would probably freak out as well since it is a huge money maker. They were talking about trying to have one game a week played in England in a couple seasons. They also mentioned about having one of the US teams that might be moving soon set up shop in London but the players union came out opposed to that since it would mean a lot more travel. I think in a few years we will probably see a game a week played in London with compensation given to the teams who play that game.

    One of the many reason people do not like it.

    Calling it a World Championship (which it was referred to at various moments last night) is just plain wrong. It's a US Championship, nothing else. Same with the 'World' Series.


    Also, it isn't 'The Greatest Show On Earth'. It's at most 'The Greatest Show In the USA'. The greatest on Earth is either the World Cup or the Olympics.

    Canada still has a team in the MLB so it isnt just a US Championship (they have 2 titles I think). Not that one team really changes things all that much.

    What?

    All Americans? And all the regional subcultures from the Amish to Compton?

    I have to be honest, I don't get American Football. I just have zero interest in it, I've tried, but I've had more excitement watching grass grow.

    As I suspected, Puppy Bowl 10 was more entertaining.

    All I've got to say about American Football fans is that they're normally just a bunch of ****ers, and here's the proof:
