A few years back while visiting the UK I met a guy who heard my accent and asked what US city was I from. Told him Seattle and he knew everything about the Seahawks. He was a coach in the UK of American football. He said the NFL was investing millions in high schools and building teams of US football. I was shocked. Had no idea.
Go Hawks
Go Hawks!
PNW. 206.
Bronco's Country, Let's ride.
What school are you dean of sir? Genuinely curious, if you were dean of a dangerous/gang infested school what would you focus on to help change a school for the better & make it safe?
I was stationed in England 🇬🇧 and almost each American base had a football team that played each other and then would play the bases in Germany. We always had a lot of people at our games. It was free but in some cases the Brits would have to be signed in on base to attend. But the stands were always full.
That sounds awesome!
Daz did a good job explaining what he was saying, yall had a whole mini podcast here haha love it
We're from the UK and only watched Football ⚽️ for 20+ years, then started watching the NFL and NHL in America and completely stopped watching "Soccer" all together haha We fell in love with the Pittsburgh Penguins first, then the Steeler back in '07 and been a fan ever since. Love Pittsburgh aka "The City Of Champions"
NFL -🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
NHL -🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
MLB -🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
The NFL has criminally ignored the German market too long only recently scheduling games there. Because of the enormous amount of US military personnel there, games have been broadcast over there for decades mostly on radio with Germans also interested in the broadcasts. They were the most supportive fans of the short-lived world league.
That is exactly why I am excited for the Seahawks-Buccaneers game in Munich this year.
It's nuts. We even have at least 5 players that are German nationals. My Raiders even have one of them on our roster.
@@sgtpickles1319 the Munich game was my favorite this year. That stadium was so alive! Looked like so much fun, and the German fans were lit up. Wish I could’ve been there.
West coast teams hate traveling to a game in England as they lose a day or more in travel time and shortens their week of prep. These teams have enough of a struggle going to the East Coast and playing 3 hours earlier, being 8 hours difference and extended travel would be a real disadvantage if there was a regular team in England. It would also screw up fantasy leagues more with starting times unless they made games start at 5pm in London so it more aligned with the US games.
It's true. But the NFL commissioner is proposing having a division in Europe--4 teams I think. So they would mostly play each other.
#3 Alabama vs #6 Tennessee...you guys have to see those college football highlights. Possibly the game of the year.
100% agree
That and Utah vs USC mostly because USC loses and the fans were salty bitches about it
@@YouOnlyIiveTwice your asking people that don’t even come from a place where nfl is popular and your going to start talking about college? Cmon brother I’m a football fan but a lot of fans don’t get that this shit bores the hell out of them
@@xxeroxxxxeroxx3242 ok
@@YouOnlyIiveTwice you’re the type of American that makes us all look bad
They have national American football games. They are amateur, but a lot of European countries have national teams. I went to Czech Vs Hungary 3 or 4 years ago they had about 6000 people at the game. Germany is a lot bigger than most countries as far as footballs popularity. They sold their NFL game out in 17 minutes or something like that.
I went to an NFL game in London and my experience was the English absolutely love the NFL. Mainly because it's much more exciting than soccer, truth be told.
I went to a soccer game in NJ and they were buzzing because they thought it was more exciting than NFL. Opinions mate. All good.
I don't know if Europeans find the NFL more exciting. They go crazy at Futbol/Soccer matches.
I’m pretty sure all the people in that nfl game were Americans who flew over
@@westhoodqualzini7884 No way
@@Bravo-Tango I love the nfl but it doesn’t translate to other countries like other American sports does. It’s too American in nature
American here… used to absolutely hate European football. Friend challenged me to pick a team and follow them for a season. I randomly started following Chelsea. Fast-forward 8 years later and I am hooked. It’s my favorite sport now and I’m a diehard fan. Lesson here is to give things a chance. Learn the rules. Follow a team. You never know.
I was with you up until you said you chose chelsea. Then I realized you make terrible decisions
@@commissaryarrick9670 lol
I'm an Aston Villa supporter. We fuckin' suck right now. Worried about Marsch - Leeds have a brutal November schedule and they're not in form.
What is European football?
@@tobiaslarsen3861 soccer. Better?
As an American, I got a chuckle out the guys complaining about a 200 mile drive. That’s a normal Saturday in the American heartland.
Maybe if you live in flyover country and have nothing better to do than drive past cornfields all day.
@@PBurns-ng3gw Yes, that’s generally what’s meant by the phrase “American Heartland”. Way to go, Captain Obvious! Don’t know where we’d be without your selfless, tireless dedication to making sure everyone on the internet sees what’s right in front of them.
Germany hosted an NFL game and they loved it. Watching the reactions on CZcams in videos showing the event was heartwarming but I agree with what you said about nation vs nation games. It will take a long time if ever for any other country to set up teams etc. So it definitely stifles potential growth
I definitely agree with Dave that starting an NFL team and it’s academies for kids would be the biggest hurdle. You can see that a lot of US parents who love American football will not let their kids play it
Flag football is expanding at a rapid pace in the US.
A no/low contact version in a place without the tradition of the full contact version should play very well for academies.
it's definitely becoming more and more of a issue, especially little league. Most parents are adopting the mentality to not let their kids bother playing football until they get into high school
I live in the state of Oklahoma and we don't have an NFL team.
Which means you can pick any team to root for.
But I guarantee you that if we got a team the state would become fans of that team.
Yeah, you guys took in the Thunder really well. Still miss my Seattle SuperSonics.
The Best AF league outside of North America is in Germany 🇩🇪 The GFL, each team has 10 American ex FB players.
4 games in London this year and they did well. Remember an NFL team will only host 10 games a year and that's including pre-season.
American Football is a fun sport to watch. Especially if you have a team to root for. Especially outside the NFL. College, High School, etc. Fantasy Football is awesome and great way for a fan to be engaged.
The problem with NFL games in Europe is that the games never involve the best match-ups because the networks and the team owners want to save those for the US where they can be aired in prime time. So the London games are almost always 2 average or losing teams(like Jacksonville) going against each other or one dominant club against a weaker opponent. As a result the games in London are usually boring while the more exciting contests take place here in America.
Youre dealing with a country that wouldn't know a good team from a bad team because they have no experience with the sport.
@@peebrainboy To an extent. I know a fair few UK/EU people who at the very least follow the highlights of teams or individual players.
The "experience" of an NFL game isn't anything special especially if you're not down near the field. You're better off watching it back home on your TV if you're in the upper decks.
-----
On the same note, most sports fans in the US have at the very least heard of the teams with history in football (Soccer) Man U/Arsenal/Barca/Madrid/Bayern etc so they have an idea on who MIGHT be good.
@@peebrainboy you're living in the past. International TV ratings and analysis shows European fan base is well aware.
@@peebrainboy I don’t think a London franchise would be super successful on the field but the Brits are as big of sports fans as the yanks. I think they would have a big following and would take to the sport really well once the general public got a grasp of the rules and general strategy.
I honestly think it's just a logistics issue.. it's difficult to fly multiple teams across the Atlantic Ocean to play a football game and fly them all the way back.. both financially and also difficult on players health idk if you've ever flown across the Atlantic Ocean but most people don't feel like paying a football game after that lol
I went to the Seahawks London game and was surprised that at least half of the fans there were from the UK but also all over Europe. I'm going to the Seahawks game in Munich also and really looking forward to it, I expect I will see tons of German fans because we met many of them at the London game that said they make the trip every year.
A UK guy on twitter made an interesting point about the NFL possibly expanding to Europe--which they don't need to do; the NFL just prints money here. He said no, because going to an NFL game once or twice a year in the UK was like feeling American and that's what made it special.
I tend to agree. Brits like that novel experience. Most NFL players are bigger than the entire English/Welsh/Scottish national rugby team. The cheerleaders are real and they do indeed wave around pom poms. Then there's the national anthem with a huge American flag. This sporting experience, and the amount of unabashed patriotism it holds, is what makes the NFL so unique to British eyes. It's a complete 180 to what they're use to.
This was an interesting video. I learned a lot from you blokes. Thank you! And it's amazing to see British people as part of the Raider Nation! 🏈

The Autumn Wind is a Raider. About to go on a winning streak.
3 playoff appearances in 20 years you guys are the equivalent of the browns, lions, and Jets. Congrats.
NFL is looking to add 4 expansion teams. London, Mexico City, Rhine, Toronto, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, San Antonio, Oklahoma City and St. Louis were all announced as potential cities.
Yeah that's the thing about the NFL you can support multiple teams but still have your favorite team
18:00 Shad Khan owns the Jaguars and also Fulham FC in the EPL (which is why Jacksonville has more of a presence in the UK, because he understands the dichotomy between both countries).
I currently live and work in Doha, and recently met a new colleague from the UK. He visited my office, and I have helmets of the Raiders and my college, Texas Tech, on display. Turns out, he's a huge Seahawks fan and has actually been to a game in Seattle.
The NBA also had a pre-season game in Abu Dabi this season.
I'm hoping to go to the London MLB game between the Cardinals/Cubs in June.
As someone from Tampa, seeing all the bandwagon Bucs fans in the UK is hilarious lol
Exactly
There are serious talks in the NFL ranks about expanding the NFL internationally with 4 new expansion teams in Europe.
it's a 20-50 year plan tho. 8 new teams, 2 divisions with one being european homes.
If we roast Dave he’ll be like, “ I thought I could take it but I can’t.”
100%
As an 19 yr old American NFL fan I believe our game is still being edited & refined for an eventual Euro NFL Branches
I have cousins from Scotland... I used to send them NFL Jerseys for bday and holiday gifts, and then I visited over there for a few weeks and asked him how they felt about the NFL and one said "We are about as interested in Yankee football as we are our own women's football clubs".
I gave them a Visa gift card after that. Lol
Well that was always my impression, but the London games always (I think) sell out fast, and 3 MILLION people wanted tickets to the Munich game next month for a 70,000 person stadium or whatever.
You can go see people on Twitter, as soon as tickets were available "You are 500,000th in line". Obviously they didn't get tickets and were angry.
@@borisbalkan707 that's pretty cool. Not that ppl didn't get tickets, but that the demand was high
@@seanwallace89 100% bro
I believe the NFL in the U.K. is much like soccer in the U.S., as they definitely both have their fan base. And like both countries, both sports have grown in popularity over the years. But I highly doubt that soccer will become more popular than football in the U.S. and the other way around in the U.K.
The NFL been trying to get a team in the UK forever. They want to get a toe hold in London, then get Spain, France etc so every country has there own team. There all about the size of a state and can support a team. They've said this for years now. They want to tap into that rivalry for the grid iron.
London, Dublin, Munich are the shoe-in picks for potential NFL teams in the next decade.
If the UK and mainland Europe all started pro teams (16-32 teams) and played one another. You could have a European Super Bowl and an American Super Bowl. The winners could play for a world championship. It would cut the massive travel costs from the US to Europe while bringing in millions of new fans.
Or just a world league.
Would take decades to balance out tho. The money difference would be so big all the best players would be in the US league for bigger contracts.
New York Giants are now 5-1
i had the fortunate occasion to drink with David Diehl's (Giants) Dad in a German Bar in Hoboken. Father said they were vacationing At Disney at 12 year's old and David Joined a pickup game on the beach. They American's taught him the game and it went from there.....
NFL games are Primarily on Sundays with the occasional Monday and Thursday Night games. Rarely NFL games are Saturdays usually after college regular season is done which is after December
I'm surprised. I mean, I knew they played games in London since the 80s Bears vs Cowboys 1986 as well as in Scandinavia, Mexico and Japan, but just thought it was a novelty or marketing thing. I always thought the stands were filled with Americans who had flown over there to watch a game. Interesting.
3 million Germans tried to get tickets for the Munich game in November
@@borisbalkan707 Wow. I also figured rugby and futball/soccer were the big things over there, not American football. Okay, cool.
I was stationed in Munich in the early 90s. There was an American football field (what?) set up off the military installation in the middle of a bunch of soccer fields - we used to go out every weekend and play pickup games of no pads full contact tackle. The Germans looked at us as if we were absolutely insane, but after having dealt with the Brits in Iraq and Afghanistan I could see they might have appreciated it.
Goodell has said recently that The NFL is seriously considering a 4 team division in Europe with 2 teams based in London.
I believe the NFL could succeed all over the world. Here's my reasoning. Each American football game is an event. Because of the violent and physical nature of the game, only 1 game can be played each week. I know rugby and Australian rules are also of this nature, but with the pads and helmets, it has more of a mystical quality. The season is also only a few months long. This creates 7 months longing for the next season. Once you learn and understand the game, the constant analyzing of each team and coach is crazy fun. Then the fantasy game creates a buzz to follow all teams. Then you start watching the college game and it goes to a crazy new level. Once an individual gets to that point, you can understand why the season is so short.
Rugby is not a dangerous game compared to American football. I know guys in the States playing rugby well into their 40s. They all quit playing football 🏈 in their 20s. Blocking and explosive tackling take a toll on the body. I also know lots of guys that played in highschool and had multiple surgeries.
I think what you're missing is that with American football, part of the draw is the scarcity. There are only 17 regular season games per year. And you only get one a week. So if there was a team in the UK, it would only play in London 8 or 9 times per year. The last few years, the NFL has had 3-4 games per season in London. It's not a huge stretch to see them add 4 or 5 games. I think games would still be novel enough to draw interest. As I said, it's part of the draw of American football even in the US - it's rare. Games aren't on all the time. They play less than half as many games as the Premier League, for example.
Of course, if the NFL established a team in Manchester, they'd probably want to call them the Killler Bees or some such.
I think the best course for the NFL is to stick with rotating teams.
Now that the NFL is playing 17 games per year, that opens the door for 16 games - pretty much an entire season - where ALL 32 teams would play in London.
Just discovered the channel so not sure if you guys have done a reaction to these yet, but "what happened to nfl europe?" by KTO and "How EVERY Team Got Its Name & Identity!" by NFL Throwback might be something you guys might enjoy. Love the channel, cheers!
Daz, hockey is still mostly a regional sport. In the southern states it hardly makes a blip on the radar.
NFL is talking about starting a Europe division with 4 new teams
The Jacksonville Jaguars adopted London as a kind of "sister city" a few years back, and are scheduled to play there at least once every season. When they do, the Jaguars are considered the "home" team.
Recently the NFL announced their intention to add a new 4 team international division to the league. Not sure where those cities would be, but I'm sure London is one of them.
I would do London Glasgow Berlin and Munich. That way you sort of have two small rivalries in the division.
I agree on the comment about Spanos. He intentionally traded away players when they were winning in San Diego so that a vote on building a new stadium would not go through and he could move to LA where they have less fans than the teams they play. After 60 years in San Diego, he should have been tarred and feathered on the way out of town.
University of Kentucky is a prime example on how far fans will travel to watch their team play. Atlanta is called Catlanta for a reason.
It’s rare to see people fighting in America over football. They just like to talk a lot.
Dave nailed it at 21:32 as a American the thing hindering football from growing in any other country is that kids can’t play it growing up. Unless you want to take serious time out of your day to understand American football as an adult you have to play it as a kid to understand the rules and nuances of the game. Until European countries start funding it in schools which will probably never happen due to the prices of all the equipment and Soccer being so cheap to play I imagine they will gladly stick to soccer and rugby.
The average cost of a helmet is between $180-$400 now times that by 30 then shoulder pads, padded pants, and jerseys as well it gets real expensive for schools. The only equipment the players were obligated to buy were cleats.
The commissioner of the NFL Roger Goddell said just a few weeks ago that the league plans on putting a 4 team division in Europe eventually.
i was a vikings fan but colts moved to indy and now thats my team in i think in 1985
They are talking about adding an entire European division of 4 teams. It's gaining steam because apparently there is an aviation company called Boom Supersonic who developed a super-jet that can fly from NY to London in under 4 hours. Last I heard, they are waiting for that jet to become a reality... but that probably won't be for another 5-10 years.
oh geez concord 2.0 lol
I was at the panthers bucs game in London 2019. NFL has a Massive following in London. And the spurs stadium is legit
I would LOVE to see a London team join the NFL-but seeing as y’all live 5-8 hours in American future, it would take a ton of logistical work to incorporate British teams into the mix without players just permanently living with jet lag.
I know the various international soccer organizations handle the time/location changes just fine, but their schedules account for such, and the recovery period between games for each sport is… necessarily different.
The plan is to have 4 European teams who would mostly play each other
@@borisbalkan707 they would need a division of their own, for sure.
I never played football in school, but I did run track and wrestled, and generally in the US, individual players have to buy their own uniforms/equipment. It's provided by the school so it all looks the same, but it's paid for by each player.
15 years ago, I would have laughed in your face if you asked me if I'd ever become a Premier League fan, now I watch it every week. You can become a fan of any sport if you take the time to Learn it, both the rules and the culture of the game.
Rugby is gaining interest in the US. Small leagues are popping up. Kind of like drunken softball leagues.
It’s in massive decline over here. Finances and head injuries. Big problems
I feel really bad for admitting this but I’m doing it. I lived in America during hurricane Katrina. My parents house is in Dallas and we had family members from Houston and Galveston come stay with us. They had Texans merch. Of course my family are die hard cowboys fans. I felt like turning them away unless they ditched the Texans merch. Not my proudest moment.
🏈The New England Patriots could play Ye Olde English Patriots. What a game! 🏉
The NFL is an incredibly aggressive organization AND incredibly rich I think it's an inevitability that a team is put in London. I think there's no future where a money hungry organization like that DOESN'T attempt a European expansion.
I agree with most of you all on your points....
I will say, that when I think of NFL in U.K. or Europe, is the appeal of 'the tailgaite party' type atmosphere, you know? Rowdy, BBQ, hoopin' and hollerin' and cheerin'! Another point is (and it's much smaller reason...but a reason nonetheless) is harnessing that appeal into recruitment. I can't tell you how many times I've seen African players, Vietmamese, Polynesionas....etc, I remember a English lineman playing for the local college team here in west Idaho, USA, for example. Hmmm. Fun topic to listen in on. Thanks Blokes...keep it up; hope you gain some knowledge and fun in the game.♨
One big thing difference between the Gridiron and Soccer is the NUMBER of games.
Regarding your conversation about "would people go to a Football game vs a Premier League game"
Would the fact that you only get 7-8 chances per YEAR. maybe, if you are lucky, 9-10. YEARLY. To see a home game, pay in? A big draw for the NFL is that there AREN'T like 80-200 games a year. If you miss 1 game, you could miss a MAJOR part of the season. One game can completely change the trajectory of your season
I think you are overestimating the issue of flight times. Yes, flying between the UK and the USA generally requires longer flights than within the USA. However, Miami to Seattle is about 7 hours flight time - and so is New York to London. Also, NFL teams stopped flying commercially long ago. The teams now use chartered flights, and for longer trips they charter aircraft with lie-flat seats for everyone.
I live 30 miles away from Green Bay. The bars , restaurants and hotels just around the stadium will bring in around 12 million per home game...
This have anything to do with the money the stadium makes ...
To any UK NFL fans, make the journey to Philly if you wanna experience am intense, emotional, and entertaining football game. Tremendous sporting city with the best, most intense and passionate fans in the country. Also, fantastic food and drink city.
The first two NHL regular season games took place last week in Cezch Republic
there was close to 1 million people waiting on the website to buy tickets for the germany game, also roger godell the NFL commissioner has talked about having a 4 team division in europe and it would make travel much more feasible
He makes a compelling argument but he didn't give a single statistic to prove that the NFL is making so much money in London. You've already seen the insane logistics and costs required to put on each game in London. So just because the NFL keeps coming back doesn't mean they are making money, but rather that they have enough money to take a loss in exchange for promoting the game to a potential market. Are they making their money on merchandise and establishing a foothold in London? Probably. But are they raking in mountains of cash for that single game? Highly doubtful. It's more about playing the long game.
We can export movies tv shows and music but not sports, sports is too nationalistic, that team represents your city and your country a team from the US can't do that. Also just because you can fill a stadium once a year doesn't mean the country loves the sport,all American sports will have a small cult following and that's it.😐
Bang on the nail 👍🏻
I agree. Perfectly said
NBA is huge globally, but to your point most outside the US choose their team off their fav player.
"Why American Football Doesn't Quite Suck in the UK - Ninh explains ..." Might answer some of the questions you have.
@Office Blokes React Their a NFL Academy in Britain
Not sure if you're interested, but I have this on DVD. Looks like it is uploaded on CZcams (it has been before not sure if it'll be a takedown), History of the Philadelphia Eagles (1933-2004):
czcams.com/video/bVaekN_ha-I/video.html
It's got clips that are used in the NFL when talking about the Eagles often. It goes over star players and key games. It's pretty darn good to get a feeling of the franchise.
I grew up on Randall Cunningham (The Ultimate Weapon). He's still my favorite QB ever. He ducked Bruce Smith (all time sack leader) in the endzone to avoid a safety, and then threw a ball about 65 yards through the air to get a TD. Or when Cunningham set a record long punt. Dude was magic in prime time.
Anyway, even if you don't make a video out of it (it is long). It's good for every Eagles fan to watch.
Cheers mates! (Also, if possible, I'd like to buy you all a pint when I finally make it out to the UK).
I believe Green Bay Packers fan's are known as "cheese heads". They are the "dairy state" and I'm sure the two have a connection.
Have you seen a Wisconsin woman? It's like asses and thighs made of cheese curds in a thin plastic shopping bag. Dairy and cheese indeed.
There are AF Academies for kids all over Europe now . Many tied to a adult league.
It is not as dangerous for head trauma that you think. The amount of force you need for a concussion is only likely in higher levels of the sport, pro and college. High schoolers can barely produce enough force for concussions. I think my team had two in my varsity year. And that was 10 years ago when helmets weren't as good.
Someone should tell Dave that Eagles fans one year booed Santa Claus and pelted him with snowballs. That’s what he’s gotten himself into.
It's funny that he brings up fans getting along, because Philly are so notorious for having terrible fans that other teams don't want to play the Eagles unless it's an away game for Philly due to how uncivilized they are. It's not AS bad now but it was once legendary.
I think the nfl will legitimately be worldwide one day. but it probably won't be for another 15 to 20 if I had to guess. we're slowly expanding our horizons of appeal to the world. it's only a matter of time until younger generations fully accept the sport around the world. I see it happening slowly now.
Of the ten largest sports stadiums in the world, one is in India and one in North Korea. The other eight are college football stadiums in America
One of the ways you can teach American Football to kids is to start with flag football. Instead of tackling (as fun as that is), you pull the opposing players flag and they are ruled "down". You do not get the hits, but still learn the rules.
Us as subscribes all have to come together and get you guys tickets! Either here in the US or a game next year in the UK.
Also.. when’s the group US trip? Whatever content you guys drop will go crazy
Main obstacle is just the word "football." If they could find a unique and compelling word that avoided triggering the existing fans of "football," it would advance fast.
NFL is less tribal but that also means the banter isn’t as good as the PL imo.
UK has a lot of American football teams. University teams as well. Not huge of course, but they have quite a bit
I live north of Tampa, so we are a Glazer family area.
If England's team is somewhat competitive, then it has a chance to grow.
Hearing the dis at Dan Snyder was worth every fucking minute of this! :) That man is the bane of my existence...ruining, then dissolving my team...sigh...BURN IN HELL SNYDER! LOL
It's funny you're talking about Green Bay they say it takes 20 years to get season tickets they say when you're born you need to get a ticket for him cuz that's how long it takes it's what I've heard
In baseball we have blackout TV for games. If you live close to a team you can’t watch it until 90min after the game. It’s such bs
Yes - Ninh Ly is a Manc, too. Of course, here in the States we have numerous cities that have multiple teams - LA, NY, Chicago, etc. And, several cities that have more than one team playing in the same stadium - usually a baseball & football team. And, the idea of overlap & rivalry because of it just doesn't happen. I think that NFL would respect the teams (soccer) that are already playing at a particular stadium, & would work out schedules.
I know on November 13th, the Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to play in Munich. Be interesting to see how that goes.
Living in KY as a Patriots guy for a couple decades. Most of my friends are Bengals fans meh. A Ravens, Vikings or Colts. I just spit facts to them. Especially with the Bengals, they have a couple more playoff wins than me since I've been born in 1990 and I've never played a down of competitive football.
In my opinion Dave is correct, If you have a team you root for in one conference then you can also pick another team in the other conference (NFC/AFC) that you lightly root for too. but never in the same conference
Native Packers fan here. Obviously the packers are on the NFL mt Rushmore of teams but I never had a clue the Brits supported us that much. But I’m very glad they do. We have by far the smallest market, but one of the biggest fan bases in the world it’s incredible
You have an all time great QB who has 1 Super Bowl appearance. And your team lost today to the Jets. Get it together, man!
@@borisbalkan707 I will not get it together. I’m in shambles. The Bucks will ease my pain. Please don’t mention the badgers
The guy narrating the video is dead wrong about one thing. The NFL is hugely popular in Canada, and has been for decades. The main reason the Bills didn't succeed in Toronto is because Torontonians want a NFL team of their own. But, they can't get one because there's an agreement between the NFL and the Canadian Football League (CFL) that prevents the NFL from expanding into Canada, as long as the CFL exists. If the CFL folded, you'd have new NFL franchises in Toronto, Montreal Vancouver and Calgary the next day.
They're often wrong
I’m liking this vid cause of the epic balrog theme from Street fighter lol
There's a third game in the UK this year on 10/30
