I just seen them talking about it up here in canada on the score... And i know that it has been mentioned in the past. After the sucess of holding the SAn fran/Arizona game in Mexico lastnight. The league has been exploring other oppurtunities at more international games in the NFL to expand its popularity and one of the games they mentioned on trying to pass a motion for next year is moving the Buffalo vs Miami game to Toronto. Living near Toronto i would be loving this! If anything it would benefit us by having a few more phin fans even though the stadium is close to buffalo. If next years game was late in the season the skydome would even provide us with less effect from the elements!

Cheers to holding this game in Canada! .. Let's hope it happens :D
 
it would suck for season ticket holders if they move a game or two to another venue, BOYCOT THE MOVING OF GAMES TO OTHER CITIES!!
 
Although I am from Canada and would just LOVE a game in Toronto, I do agree that it's not real-good business towards season-ticket holders... I would HATE to live in Miami and that a game would be moved to Cuba or something off my schedule...
 
Only if

Only if Fidel Castro kicks the bucket. Better yet send the Fins over there and have Taylor blitz his as*.
 
As nice as it seems from a public relations stand point, I'm against the playing of games in other countries. The NFL always wanted to do this and thus created NFL Europe (the nfl farm league). I can understand an exhibition game or even a pre-season game but not regular season. For starters, the home team for the week is at a disadvantage since they don't get "home field" they get labeled "home team" but its neutral turf! Secondly, season ticket holders get screwed cause they have to travel to see a team that should play all it's home games in their city. Thats my 2 cents.....lol ;)
 
what if.. other countries establish a football organization and have games played among each country, then the title "WORLD CHAMPIONS" would actually mean something.
 
how about have some games in the states where there is no pro football team? i am pretty sure a lot of spectators would show up since it would be a once a year thing.

I will give you 3 more reasons, why that wouldnt work in Cuba:

1) Baseball
2) Boxing
3) Soccer

Those are top 3 sports in Cuba though not necessarily in that order.
and also Castro kicking the bucket wouldnt make a huge difference, why? Once communism fails there.There will be chaos without a stable government, think Iraq, but not as bad.

Well I could go on lecturing you guys about this but that is for another time.

Umm, don't think we need a lecture, as nobody was seriously proposing that the NFL play a game in Cuba.:shakeno:

But, now that you mention it. I like that Iraq idea. We could play the Jets in Bahgdad.
 
Hope u guys realise they are petitioning to have a regular NFL game in London. The new Wembley stadium will be built soon and its the talk over here and on the tv that they are trying to get a regular season game.
