Lizard Lick Towing might be one of the best shows on TV.

It's pretty fake but damn funny.

The Cardinals have a WR coach named McNulty.

I wear a shirt to work this color about once every couple of weeks. Every time I where it the same people compliment me on it. Either this is a nice shirt or people have some short memory....

I hate my commute this time of year. There is blinding sun in my eyes both ways. It's brutal.

It's hilarious that the NFL even considers moving the Super Bowl to London in the near future. Why in the world would you want to do that?

Because they can???

Add-On: How would that work time wise? Would the Super Bowl have to be played at 8:00PM London 4:00est. That would suck for people in the pacific.

I don't see a problem with it. It's not like the game is meant for the common NFL fan anymore. I heard on the radio that the avg ticket price right now is like $4,000.

Exactly. How many actual fans of those teams do you think will be there? Maybe half the stadium with real fans and the other half filled with corporate suits.

Doesn't matter if the game was here or London, it would be sold out and millions of people would watch on TV.

The Super Bowl is a neutral site, so location wouldn't/shouldn't matter. I actually wouldn't mind the Super Bowl being taken overseas/North/South of the border every year, or every 3 years.

Seems like they alternate between 5-6 US sites anyways (Tampa, Miami, Glendale, New Orleans, etc).

I wouldn't mind seeing the Super Bowl played in Brazil, Tokyo, Osaka, places like that. Just a thought.

No, the Super Bowl shouldn't be brought overseas. It's a huge boost to the economy in the cities that host it. The NFL is an American Sports League. Let's allow American cities to profit from it.

I agree on some level.
I also agree that it shouldn't matter where they play.

I am on the fence clearly.

The NFL wants to market itself to the world. The NFL has a responsibility to help the cities profit.

Plenty of other cities should have a chance to hold a super bowl before they start going all over the world.

At the same time...where the game is played should not matter at all. The NFL requires a certain amount of hotels available, but prefers the warmer or domed stadium areas.

I would even go as far to suggest that the NFL plays in Las Vegas for the Super Bowl or in Hawaii with the Pro Bowl in Las Vegas.
