I don't know why these London games irritate me so much. I guess it's just selfish, but I want the NFL to stay here in the States. Mixing with CFL didn't go so well here. I don't like the idea of sharing the game.
In my mind this is our national pastime (baseball is a joke). Football is just a reflection of our culture. The expansion, IMO, is just a move by the owners to increase revenue by crossing into new markets. It's not about the game.

Wouldn't worry about it strick. Moving a franchise over there would quickly lose its luster. It would be a bad franchise (wouldn't move a good one) and they would probably suck. Fans wouldn't want to show up to a sport that they care about as much as watching bowling when the team sucks. I doubt this ever happens.

No NFL team in London. Then you have jet lag issues and crossing the continents. Just in U.S. Thank you.
