Hi there... Am Yurievi Ledesma, am a hardcore dolfan, i live in Mexico city and over the years i´ve seen how the NFL has look towards Mexico and Mexico´s fan base by bringing each other year an exhibition game (i was there when the dolphins kicked the broncos arse in a game in aztec stadium infront of more than 100, 000 fans, and that´s the only chance i had to see Marino play at least a couple of series :)). And now a regular season game between the 49ers and the Arizona Cardinals, am kind of excited about the whole thing but it´s kind of sad for the Cards because it´s supost to be a home game ...and there are definitely more 49ers fans here in mexico... but the 49ers dont have the support like the dolphins, steelers and raiders have...if you watch sunday´s game you will see lots and lots of dolphin jerseys they have a huge fan base here ... and the question here is ... would you be willing to give up a home game so the dolphins can come to mexico to play in a regular season game ?

i know some of you might not like the idea ... but it will be incredible to experience a dolphins regular season game ...:D
 
Im sorry I understand you are a fan and would love to see the Phins in your home town during the regular season, but I am not willing to give up a home game so that they can play in Mexico, it'll be extra travel, one less home game, I just dont like the idea.......
 
yeh nothing would be worng with that ... but i think we should have a super bowl there .... or somewhere else that would be something different
 
If the support is there that we really do have home-field advantage, then i would be all for having a game played south of the border. With miami's large hispanic fan base it almost seems like a logical choice. BUT, you will have to talk to Mr. H on this one. I heard that the teams will get financial compensation, but with huizenga it always has been, and always will be about the money.

Show me the money!
 
Very cool for you to have seen Marino. Kinda sucks that mexico gets 2 crappy teams. But i guess it's better than nothing. I would have put all my money on the cowboys as being mexico's favorite team.
 
No Way.. support or not, it'd be a road game for so many reasons, not a good idea.
 
Hey! Im in Mexico City too... And I remember the TD pass from Marino to OJ (I think) in the Aztec Stadium... that was my very best moment as a Dolphin Fan... well a very good one was when Zach sign a photo to me...

I hope we can make some stuff for all dolfans in Mexico!!

I was actually shocked to see so many Dolphin Fans in Guadalajara, Mexico. I noticed they have high schools starting to play football over there and some of those guys were wearing Miami Dolphin bandanas under their helmets....It felt good to know the Dolphins have fan support worldwide, now only if we can get everyone into Dolphins staduim....

I am a Finfan in California, but the way I see it as of right now, we need all the home games we can get....it would be nice to see a Dolphins game in Mexico, but only as an away game, that way it would be played in nutural territory, not to mention it would be almost like a home game to the Dolphins with all the support.
 
well there are lots of cowboy fans here also ... it´s hard tp determine which team has the highest number of fans.... but the dolphins are definitely in the top 3...
 
I also live in Mexico City, and was at that Fins-Broncos game. What a pass by Marino. Anyways, as much as I'd love to see the Fins playing a home game here in Mexico City, I do think it'd be more of a road game than a home game. Now, if they played the Cards in Mexico City as a road game, that'd be awesome. I think I will be wearing my Zach Thomas jersey on sunday.

Go Fins!

How hard is it for you to watch games. Do most places have the same Direct TV package that we get here in the states. Is this expensive there.?
 
well ... thats a bit of a problem for the average fan here in mexico... because of the average income that we have here... the sunday ticket its about 1200 pesos and that would be about 110-120 Us dollars for the whole season, it´s a bit expensive but we have it on Sky because Directv stopped operating on Mexico ... For example on regular cable we get 3 games (sunday night at ESPN and a double header on FOX. plus another two games on local TV.)..so it´s 5 games each sunday ... free... but for hard core fans the sunday ticket is a most def...
 
q pedo yurievi yo tambien soy mexicano y estoy muy feliz por el partido

viva mexico . mexico deserves the oportunity`to have a game there because we love football
 
LOL.....based on the thread title, I thought this would have something to do with Michael Vick....ahhh, I mean Ron Mexico....ahhh, I mean Michael Vick. Oh well, you know what I mean.
