Re: NFL Regular Season Games Overseas: Good or Bad Idea?

Why are the NFLE stadiums half empty ...at the moment it is a cast off league... If the NFLE games were held in the US the attendance would be even lower ... serriously would yu pay to watch a bunch of scrubs not even good enough to play and train with a real NFL team?

It wouldn't be so bad if the NFLE teams where primarily made up of Europeans and there may be some consistancy there and if the coaches and players stayed more than a couple of years and if the NFL didn't stop taking teams away from countries and possibly made sure that the press in the individual countries put out information like the world bowl in Scotland a few years back no one knew about.

The anoying thing is the NFLE could be an exceptional tool if it was as more of a feeder league for the NFL like the collage system is in the US if the NFL hooked up with univerisites and collages in Europe to get them to run exchange scollerships for American students on sports and cultural basis.

There is an underestimation of how popular the sport is worldwide by the American people . I am not asking for a NFL world cup but it is a smart thing to do if it makes Football a world game to play outside the US once in a while.
