Maybe the Jets will be the first team of London. The London Looneys. Or maybe Yogi B will start a petition to get them in Newcastle. The Jets may have passed the Browns (and the Mets) for ineptitude.
There may be talk and hopes of getting a franchise over here one day (and that may well be pie in the sky) but if it is the Jets on offer, you can keep em
Yogi - are you at Wembley this year for the Steelers/Vikings? If so we have to meet up this time at the tailgate and have a drink.
I can't buy into England getting a franchise. Logistically it's impractical. As much as I love the opportunity to watch live NFL at Wembley I appreciate how much of a drain it is to the players and team and even the fans that miss out on a home game. Obviously business reasons mean we're lucky to get games here but even if we did adopt a team NFL fans in England already follow a team. Even if a team set up here in Manchester I would go to every home game, however I wouldn't have the affection for them as I do the Steelers.
