PFT: Steelers and Cards to Play in Ireland Next Season?

[crisper57]

References that the Steelers are scheduled to come to AZ again next season, but this might be the game that gets exported overseas. It'll suck for the STH's who would like to make a lot of money off of one game if this is true.

Pure speculation on PFT's part based on old scheduling rules that changed a few years ago.

Love Ireland...I would make this one if any way possible.

Cardinals already sacrificed a home game against the Niners a few years back. You would think that they wouldn't have to do it a second time when so many haven't done it once. If the Stealers want to play in Ireland, they should cough up their own home game IMO.

[DieHardCardFan]

Boo hoo.

F them.

Beat me to it!! Nothing gets me more psst than so called "fans" saving tickets to sell to big name team fans. It is awesome when our nest is filled with Steelers fans or Cowgirl Fans. So yeah F them!

Agreed

I'm sure the home team is well compensated for giving up a home game. I wouldn't even be surprised if they made out better than hosting the game in Arizona.

Ditto that.

Love Ireland...I would make this one if any way possible.

If it happens, I would definitely try to go. Love, love, love Ireland!

 

[Cheesebeef]

going to ireland to catch a game would be awesome.

 

[Shzm13]

Hope it doesn't happen. I believe that's supposed to be a home game for us. Rooney being a US ambassador to Ireland, im sure he'd find a way to pack the stadium with yellow piss rags.

No dice! Have the game in Glendale

Boo hoo.

F them.

Agree. It would suck for the STH's that don't sell their tickets and want to see their team play their home games here in AZ.

Screw those looking to sell their seats. Don't care at all how a game being moved would affect them.

 

[Derm]

Ireland - great; Steelers - not so much

 

[ARZCardinals]

F em if they take another game from us.

Mexico and now Ireland

Take another team

 

[splitsecond]

I really hope not.

Ireland? If you want your hot dogs grilled over the bonfire of a protest. You won't know where the tailgate stops and where the revolution against the banksters begins.

If selling one ticket to pay for my whole season made me a bad guy I guess I was a bad guy.

I guess I should have noted that I was being sarcastic when I said it would suck for those that sold their seats.

But really, who cares? The Cards get up for games when the Nest is taken over by visiting fans. Some of those games have been the most epic, most amazing games I have ever seen! The last two home Dallas games, the last home Vikings game, and the last home Steelers game come immediately to mind.

I want to see the Steelers in Glendale again. We get them, Dallas, Cleveland and the G-men at home this year. The strike/lockout/Europe game better not screw up such a great home schedule.

 

[ARZCardinals]

There are 32 f'n teams....stop taking our home games from us.

You want us to renew our season ticket packages, but then you rip out the best games from under us. **** that you pieces of ****!

 

[Treefiddy]

Are we really going to be the home team against the Steelers? They just played here 4 years ago so it should be their home game.

I remember because Breaston returned a punt for a TD and there was an awesome picture of him doing the lay up (before tripping on the landing) with the UofP crowd in the background.

Edit: NVM, read the article and they pointed this out.
