NFL Flirts with the Idea of Sending Thousands of Americans to their Graves

ESPN is reporting that the NFL is considering London as a future site for the Superbowl:

A future Super Bowl champion may someday be crowned overseas in a game witnessed predominantly by a foreign audience, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said.

"There's a great deal of interest in holding a Super Bowl in London," Goodell told reporters Monday. "So we'll be looking at that."

The commissioner said London's new Wembley Stadium would make a great candidate for pro football's biggest matchup, given the enthusiasm overseas for the game.
Clearly this is a decision motivated by money. And clearly, the NFL hasn't considered the enormous terrorism risk that a London Superbowl would present. London is full or Islamic radicals who come and go as they please. The most important sporting event in America on British soil would serve as the flame for the murderous moths and could only result in the loss of many American lives. If the NFL makes this decision, it will be a catastrophe.

"Most important sporting event in America on British soil"

Sounds like you soiled your pants.

I'll take the World Series over the Superbowl anyday, Hell, I'll take the Stanley Cup, the Final Four, Daytona 500 and Lingerie bowl over the Super Bowl anyday.

It really doesn't matter what you prefer Copernicus. Ratings and ad revenue prove you to be wrong. So yeah, go to the Soap Box Derby and be sure to take a bag of shit for lunch. I grow tired of contrarian imbeciles like yourself. So very tired

I get it. Sending the Superbowl to London is even worse than selling Budweiser to some foreign nation. This is a absolutely horrible un-American kind of moronic idea worth firing NFL commissioner for even considering such nonsense.

Well, going beyond the un-Americanness of it, it's downright dangerous. London is probably the most Islamic city in any western nation. It has bad news written all over it.

So who the f*&% cares!!!!
This life-long football fan has given up on the whole NFL thing. Six-year 78 million dollar contract for Matt Stafford???? WTF!!!! The Lions???? Probably the worst team EVER in football history and Michigan has the worst jobless rate in the country. Wow, can anybody see the irony??? Good bye NFL, hello family....
