Question for people in the UK

[Sealhound]

Wel its come over here a couple of times now and I think its sold out wembley every time, or very close (around 80,000 people).

NFL is popular here.

[S.G.]

i think people prefer it as a concept/event than as an actual sport

[minto83]

Some ppl are into in over here but I couldn't give a ****

[beecherhq]

Does anyone care at all when the NFL comes over there and plays a game in the Wembley Arena?

My brother! Hes nuts about it, whereas i can't stand the ****e. Hes just been to arizona to watch his team New York giants play

[BetterCallSaul]

A two hour game with only around 15 mins of actual play. Is the paint dry yet?

[hammerhiem]

I'm a fan of the NFL, Dolphins in particular so if they came over to play I would go and watch them.

Just so long as it's not a week before a Vital Euro or World Cup qualifier it's all good.

Oh and it's Wembley Stadium, the Arena is a small indoor venue that you couldn't play American football in even if you wanted too.

It's unpopular for me to say this but the NFL culture in this country is immensely depressing to me. You see these poor people on sunday's in bar's watching this rigged game, drinking beer and waiting for free pizza at halftime. I wish the NFL would play football and put on a production that's worthy of my people.

And it makes them so happy too They put up bears flags on their houses and stuff and the NFL totally ****s on them. It really is so depressing. rigged and commercials galore.

Isn't it something like 14 games in a season? Christ, the rugby lads have that many internationals alone in a world cup year let alone club matches.

The only useful purpose the NFL have served at Wembley in the last two years is to utterly ruin the pitch.

[Christus Regnat]

The NFL is so diabiolcal, they have commercials too where they make/mock the sabbath day it's so evil.

[hammerhiem]

Isn't it something like 14 games in a season?

16 and to be honest if it lasted much longer than that you probably wouldn't have any live Quarterbacks.

Rugby and American Football are not compairable.
