NFL has awarded international markets to teams

I think I was more right than wrong

Own you by buying your product?

It goes further than that. Once you get used to the revenue, they influence you politically. You`l never again have the right to say a negative thing against them or take up a position opposing them. You either agree or shut up. Same holds true for everything else.

If I were advising a business start up, I would tell them to ensure to structure it so they can survive very well without China revenue and never rely on them for your supply chain. Safety first. Boeing and Airbus did it best. They set up manufacturing sites in China that only sells to the Chinese market. If it goes south, they close the doors and head home.

What does this even mean?


And don't the Cowboys already own the rest of the World?

Looks suspiciously like where teams are willing to give up a home game to gain marketing rights in.

NFL announces international market partnerships: Rams in China, Buccaneers in Germany, Dolphins in Spain

A total of 18 NFL teams will now utilize international markets

www.cbssports.com

The NFL has officially gone international. In the wake of increased commitment to games abroad, with all 32 teams set to play at least one international game over the next eight seasons, the league announced Wednesday an expansive Home Marketing Areas (HMA) initiative that grants teams specific international territories in which they can host events and further their franchise.

The program includes a five-year term for participating teams -- of which there are 18, as part of the initial agreement. The HMA officially gives those teams the right to "pursue activities" consistent with their domestic endeavors. That includes in-person and digital marketing, corporate sponsorship sales, fan events, youth football activities, merchandise sales and marketing relationships with other sports and entertainment venues in the market.

Seahawks get the Aleutian Islands.

Beijing becomes the 2nd home of the Ros Anjeris Lambs.

Canada seems like a good idea for the Seahawks. Already have Canadian fans and can grow that base , while also having a easy trip for the lone game they will play there. I like it. Screw having to play a game on the other side of the planet.

 

[Golden Spur]

Awesome, Panzers in Germany!

 

[Judge Fudge]

Hawks get BC?

Yes sir and I would assume Alberta.

 

[Judge Fudge]

Patriots will play in Germany in 2023. Most likely it'll be against the Chiefs. Both will lose a home game.

Location has not been announced but most likely Signal Iduna Park Capacity: 81,000

What surprised me is you guys didn't try to make a play for Maritimes Canada( New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI and Newfoundland/Labrador)

Keep a good Eye on Denver.

They might Might make a play being so close to Alberta

 

[RememberTheKoy]

Oh cool, now the NFL can be China's latest bitch.

 

[Judge Fudge]

Here how I could see Canada Divved up:

Seahawks: BC and Yukon
Broncos* : Alberta and North West Territories
Vikings: Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nunavut and Eastern Ontario.
Bills*: Western Ontario and Quebec?????
Patriots* : Maritimes and Quebec???

Again for home games, As regards for New England. They're have been plans for about 10-15 years, @Hank Kingsley help on time frame please good sir, to build a stadium in Halifax and put a CFL team there but nothing more than that.

Here is something on the Halifax front

Flag on the play: Maritime CFL fans still await ticket refund

Just a few years ago, excitement for a possible Canadian Football League expansion into the Maritimes was riding a historic high.

Somehow I think Kroenke will count his money from Chinese fans and like it.

 

[R.J. MacReady]

I guess the Giants were afraid that nobody would know who they were.

One of the concept images if the the Stadium in Halifax

Honestly....

Put it against the ocean would be a good backdrop
