Chargers to Play Saints in London Oct 26

whormoan · Jan 27, 2008

Hopefully the Chargers can parlay the trip into a SB trip like NY did. Glad this is a Saints' home game and not costing the Chargers one. Brees vs Chargers in London. Interesting. I guess the NFL didn't want another 6-3 game (or whatever it was) this yr

Europoeans are not interested in American football. It will never be popular there. This is more marketing horseshit.

Germany is. Look at NFL Europe, it failed everywhere else but thrived in Germany....by the end we had 5 of the 6 teams in Germany. Why they aren't playing a game in Berlin, Frankfurt, or Hamburg is beyond me. Hell play one in fucking Dusseldorf give some of our soldiers there some tickets and patriotically ramp it up. I like the idea but the fact that the NFL is going to London again before going to Germany is fucking retarded.

Is it true that Whormoan and Choptalk will be honorary ball boys for their respective teams?

We could have a Griswold-like European vacation documentary with those two. Can you imagine Whormoan running into Reggie Bush at Buckingham Palace? Can you imagine the look on some Chelsea soccer-hooligans when Chopper starts in with "The Saints Go Marching In" at the local pub?

Get the Rx film division on it quick.:toast:

Its not fair for the Saints to lose a home game like this.

They need to can these games now.

I am getting season tickets again, and they will cost the same with the 7 games as they would with 8.

Its bad enough I have to pay fullprice for preseason games that I dont go to.

Now I have to pay for 8 regular season games when they are only playing 7.

Good points. This isn't MLB where they play 5000 games or the NBA where they play 2000 games. You get 8, only 8 home games and you shouldn't have to get out the vaseline and lube up so some fucking bloak who doesn't give a fuck about FOOTBALL has the game played at some soccer field.

NFL = No Fucking Logic

Wow, isn't this the second "home" game the Saints have lost now? First their Giants game the year of Katrina was deemed a home game, now this.
Drew Brees must have slept with one of the NFL bigwig's wives or something.
