    We, over here in Europe, are very excited about the NFL London game this October at Wembley Satdium.

    How do you feel about it in USA?

    I'm glad that they are trying it but at the same time I have heard that american football is disliked in England so it doesn't make much sense to me.

    Its funny that Gf1 & I are the 1st to comment about the game in London.

    I don't know that American football is unpopular over there. I recall the games being fairly well attended when NFLE was on regular cable. Most, if not all, NFL Europe franchises are in Germany now which is interesting. I notice they did not attempt to put any teams in France. lol.

    I am looking forward to 10/28 as it may be the only time the phins are on TV. The league could not have picked 2 better franchises to represent across the pond.

    Welcome aboard, KK.

    I was wrong, but, not about France. There is still a team in Amsterdam.

    I don't do that anymore I do yoga. Oh wait, that's the one Dolphins who wants to be reinstated.

    Seriously, Right theme; Wrong artist. I had Van Halen in mind.

    For the record, Spain did have an NFLE team.
