Default London Jaguars?
They will have "a number" of home games in London next year. Good idea bad idea or don't care?

I guess it doesn't bother me as long as they have night games to align with our time zones.

I definitely pisses me off. They can volunteer for that shit, but someone else has to make that stupid ass fucking trip to play them too. It fucks up everyone's schedule and it's just a retarded idea.

Let's just hope the games aren't aired on NBC. They'd finish with the noon starts but we wouldn't see a thing until Sunday Night Football.

Who cares? They play at 7PM in London, which would be 1PM on the east coast (give or take) and come back. It doesn't have to be a big deal.

I would love it if my team built a fan base over there from whooping up on the Jaguars.

It has zero impact on my viewing, but as a fan I don't want my team travelling halfway across the world to play a game when every other team in the division gets to play here. It throws off schedules and I don't care if they schedule the bye week after the game it puts the teams travelling there at a disadvantage.

This is America DAMNIT. They can't take our footballs. They already took our jobs!

Play "here".
The league is based "here" is it not? Everyone lives "here", therefore the two teams have to travel "there" and are put at a disadvantage. Has nothing to do with anyone taking anything.

How does it change schedules if the teams pretend like they never left the time zone? It isn't like they are going to spend all week in London.

How do you pretend to change time zones? And no nonsense about small lights attached to the back of your knee . . . .

Have you ever taken an overseas trip?

Huh?

If teams simply left as early as they would normally leave, get to London, sleep normally as if they were home, get up and eat normally, and then get to the game and play at 1PM Eastern time zone (7PM local) then head home, I don't see how it would affect the team so horribly.

Yeah, and I'm sure the 7+ hour plane ride each way is a blast.
