Beer selections would be aces as well. Plus excellent stadium fights with hooligans who barely understand the game versus rednecks who put a second mortgage on their house to follow the Cowboys for Merica. edit: England vs. New England in the Ungrateful Colony Bowl

Nail Rat posted:If London ever gets a team the games should all be required to be night games on Saturday or Sunday (so they're actually in the afternoon). I have to start watching football at 8:30 AM when the Colts play the Jags and that's the night after I'll be at a wedding. Hair of the dog I guess. That's every saturday morning if you're on the best coast

Yeah because I'm sure the Raiders would be interested in passing over a $1.9 billion stadium in Vegas to have an infield on their field again.

The Lott bid is significant in that the group is majority black and would make he raiders iirc the only black owned team in the league, and I think the only other team in pro sports outside of the Hornets owned by Michael Jordan. But that's the key. They want control over the team and Mark ain't gunna sell. It's going to take the league to force him out.

Also if I can't imagine something changing in the next five to ten years, that's the same thing as it never changing in all of the yawning billions upon billions of years in the future, marching endlessly into eternity. Or even like, thirty years from now!

IIRC the league's plan is to have like 5 games in London a year starting in a few years. At that point having a team there isn't that much different. I mean there's already 3 games there. The biggest problem I see with having a team based there, outside of problems that exist with the current setup, is that they'd never be able to have a home game in US prime time.
