The travel to Asia is BRUTAL, I know it took me a few days to adjust to the time difference when I went got stationed in Japan. I would imagine it would be rough...even if they had a bye week going in or out of the game.


For a team in LA, the travel time from LA to Berlin is the same as from LA to Beijing (non-stop assumed)

You really believe Euros know the rules better than most fans of the NFL who have been watching the game most of their lives? Lol ok. If you believe that maybe you can convince me Kurt Warners gonna come out retirement to rescue the Cards once Carson leaves the Redbirds :D

You would be surprised Bucky.

I always remember sitting at Wembley years ago a US Steelers fan wrongly explained what an onside kick was to the chap next to me. Ok just an example, but you find there is a huge amount of knowledge for the sport over here and as pointed out a lot of fans go all in for it.

I love that the product is spread around, what I don't like is the home fans getting shafted. Maybe if we ever get a 17 game season, that's the one that gets moved and fans pay no extra for a Season Tickets.

Ok you are never going to get all the extra 17's played out side the U.S. But if say England got 2 or 3, Germany, Canada, Mexico or even China it's not that much of a reach.

Just a thought.
