He HAS to be joking. Seriously. If he is, it's really funny. If he isn't. Damn, that's sad.

Sucks that they'll be showing two pathetic teams.
Should have sent over some of the better mid range teams.
I guess you should be happy it's not the Rams vs. Dolphins
London will never want to see American football again after seeing these two jokes come into town.

The Giants have lost to Dallas and Green Bay, two teams that are themselves, quite good this year. They have defeated Washington and Philadelphia, two teams that are not exactly crumb cake.
If a team whose record is two games better than ours is pathetic, I'd hate to see what you think of the Cardinals.
I'm sure people said the same when we played the niners in Mexico City.
The Giants arent pathetic. They are the second-best team in the NFC.

The Dolphins are pathetic, but the Giants?
How can anyone call the Dolphins pathetic. They won 2 Super Bowls in the 70s.
That was only 30 + years ago.

Typo? Or greatest pun ever?
I truly hope the game sucks because I'm hoping the NFL fails in England.

I don't mind if it blows up over there, as long as they keep the superbowl here.
I'm with you (not in the game sucking obviously). It failed already with NFL europe and it's nice and perfect as it is being an American thing.
I'd hate if there were expansion teams outside the US.

absolute ********!
in what way do you want it to fail?
there will never be a team here we know this already but the odd game to spread the word and to keep NFL fans who dont live in the States happy it cant be a bad thing. Or is it just for for Americans as its 'your game'. Without throwing the odd todbit our way support would drop over here and Tv coverage and will drop and for real fans like myself thats a nightmare prospect.
I spend good money on the Cardinals and with games and coverage like this the fan base of the NFL and Cardinals will grow, if you think that that a bad thing and what the gamne to 'suck' then its you choice but to be fair i thought more of you than that Skorp.
anyway i am off the watch 'our football' now....god forbid the rest of the world catches on.........
England gave us a broken Beckham, we give England a broken Dolphin. Fair trade, as I see it.

Why the heck isn't this game being shown in AZ?
AZcentral listed the London game on FOX, but instead we get Detroit @ Chicago?
Messed up. If you are going to make the effort to play overseas to market the league, then at least show it in the states.

I was just thinking the same thing.
Seriously. I was going to tune in to it just because it was in England. I wanted to see how the stadium looked, the fans and what they were doing, etc.
Absolutely braindead that it is not being broadcast everywhere.

Had a great day and the game wasnt THAT bad. Lets hope we get one every year. (just dont tell Skorp
)(i'll put some more pics up when i get them loaded up)
English, it's sheer selfishness on my part. I do not want to give up a home game to you. Nor do I ever want to see the Super Bowl overseas.
I liked Dallas' Jerry Jones' statement that he would not play in Britain and alienate his season ticket holders and advertisers.

its fair enough mate no worries, but the thought of losing a game every 16 years inst so bad is it? (typical tha Crads one was in Mexico - about sums my luck up)
On the Super Bowl, if that is anywhere but the US it is a complete joke and pretty pointless. The idea of these games (in my opinon) is the spread the word and give real fans over here the chance of game. The SB does non of this, the game is a circus and would not be open to the fans anyway, in fact i would bet the same 80000 people who whould have gone had it been in any US state would eb the same as if overseas.
Jerry Jones might change he tune if he thought there was money in it. He seems non to concerned that his team have a short week getting ready for Thanksgiving every year does he....i wonder why that its.
