NFL Considering Holding Games in Hawaii and Canada

[BusSport]

CBS Sports:

The NFL has also talked internally about playing games in other cities in the U.S. which do not have pro teams, with some buzz about playing a game at Notre Dame or Alabama, as well as Hawaii and cities in Canada. It is viewed as a unique and profound way to grow the game globally and extend the reach of sales, merchandising and broadcast rights around the globe, with there only so much more room for growth within America.

not the worst idea, like playing on that "field" in mexico.

 

[redseat]

CFL says HELL NO!
Canadians say HELL YES!
Hawaii would be nice

Pro Bowl isn't enough?

 

[Dolemite censored]

Games in Canada could work. CFL would be pissed.

Buffalo and Detroit are almost in Canada anyway.

Seattle is 135 miles from Vancouver, BC.

 

[Debbie Does]

So do local season ticket holders miss a game, or do they end up paying for what is basically an away game?

Aloha stadium is garbage and the field is terrible as well.

They just did that this preseason. The field was in shit shape up there too.

They need that longer football field in Canada to compensate

Cool, lets keep fucking teams out of home games (except the Patriots)

Hi Francis

 

[Cave_Johnson]

Makes more sense than half way across in the word in London or on a piece of shit field in Mexico

This could be the plan for the 17th neutral field game the NFL wants.

 

[Tapey]

I’d rather they go play in Japan

Pro Bowl WASN'T enough?

For some dumb reason, they have it in Orlando now.

 

[Tech_God]

The players would love to play in Canada. 75 cents per U.S. dollar.

That was Winnipeg. Should never have done that, imo. Even if just pre-season. If the NFL truly wants to go to the 17 game with a neutral site for every team, they need to get the owners to open their fucking wallets and be sure field turf is installed or scrap the whole idea.

Winnipeg.

If they BC Place( Vancouver) your in a dome.

If Vancouver. Would be best money bet for Green Bay vs Seattle. It is 50% Seahawks fans and 40% Packers fans out here in Victoria. I would buy at least 6 tickets for it for me, my dad, my brothers and their spouses.

But the weather is nice.

If we could talk about a team in London or a team in Hawaii, I think Hawaii would work better. Especially if it was the Chargers.
