I'm not a fan of these overseas games, but Berlin is an awesome city...if the Bills were in this game, it would be a great roadtrip...highly recommended.

How about a Bills game in Poland? Bills vs Bears. The two largest Polish population cities in the USA.

 

The Polish Rifle, aka Jaws, the most famous Polish NFL player I believe, approves. It's a interesting idea. There were certainly many Polish residents in my town growing up. I am half Polish (and still, to this day, a little apprehensive about admitting it).

 

BTW, anyone remember Dyngus Day?

They still celebrate Dyngus. Monday after Easter.

 

There was another Polish QB, Don Majkowski. "Majic" for Green Bay.

Rename to InterNational Football League coming?

 

Absolutely hate the overseas games.  Talk about greed.  How much more money does the (I)nfl need?

Then you’re really gonna be upset when the NFL eventually has a European DIVISION! That’s the current plan anyway..🤷‍♂️

Is that the day where men can whip all chicks in the legs with pussywillow sticks and get away with it? 
‘Hey! You’re Hot!’ WHACK!
FUN TIMES INDEED!

Close. I said let them play with their feet.  As in play soccer. 

 

The NHL should really expand to Europe. Germany loves the NHL more than the NFL

Wondering how that would work, since NFL Europe was tried twice, and failed both times.

 

NFL Europe - Wikipedia

I’ll take a stab. Say it’s not your Conference for instance. Your team has to play 2 away games against them. Schedule them in back to back weeks then get a bye to readjust to the U.S.

Not cool. you don't put much thought into this until your team loses a home game and gets stuck on the wrong end of travel advantages. The NFL is talking about adding an entire division in europe, which will happen in time, no doubt. These owners will probably pocket nearly a half million dollars each from the move. 

 

but the quality of the game and the league will not be improved. no doubt about that.
