    I love the idea, but why not do preseason games instead of regular season? Sure the product is worse, but I feel bad for the home team losing a home game.

    Well, we just added another game to the schedule, so why not try to use that extra game for internationals all around the world so everyone gets to enjoy it? There are people that can't bother going to a game because of the traffic, and then there are people like me spending 2K for me and my family to travel to another country for a chance to see the Colts play.

    1 I would be fine with, but taking multiple games away from home fans here in the States, who's local tax dollars funded most of these stadiums, that I have a problem with. 2 this year, guarantee, they go for 3 home games next year in London for the Jags. So the jags fans go from 8 home games to 6, then 5. then none. 


    I dont think any team should play more than 1 game away from their own stadium.. Regarding the local tax, I think it will benefit the teams more then hurting them.. Getting big in the European market will boost the NFL revenue and boost the teams income.. I have 7 Jerseys and and a bunch of merchandise, Some may profit more than the Colts on these items, but its none the less money. Ive been to London, and I was in LA to watch the Colts first game next time I will be in Indianapolis and i'll drop some money they it all goes around.

    Ive had gamepass for the last 13 years so I can watch the Colts.. This would never happend had if the NFL dident give a damn about the Europeans. 

    look at Real Madrid. They a only 46 million spains, yet its one of the most valuable franchises in the world.

  3. As a European I like it, I went last time Colts played in London, and I will be there next time as well. You guys get to enjoy 7 home games, aren't we allowed to enjoy 1 ?

    I know you dont give a % about us on the other side of the pond. But I am 4000 miles away.. and I just want an opportunity to flash my new Leornard jersey :)


    Go Colts from Denmark

    No amount of force from a tackle by even Bob Sanders could have made that ball flop forward that much like it did. It was a forward pass. Rewatch it. Just accept it. 

    exactly

    A couple years back, people were getting picks off the internet SEVERAL minutes before they were announced on TV. At one point, twitter was ahead by 3-4 picks.   They weren't the official announcements, often they were watching prospects' families or even the prospects' own twitter accounts for those leaks

     

    The forum mods have said to wait until its announced by the commissioner on TV. 


    3-4 picks delay is understandable annoying I thought it was like 30-60 secs

    How do you follow the Colts? Direct TV?

     

    I did business in Australia with one of the cellular operators, Telstra. The engineering manager I dealt with was more interested in Andrew Luck (His rookie year) than my companies products 

     

    I think that NFL is gaining interest across the globe.


    If u wanna follow a specific team u have to pay 250$ for a gamepass they show games every sunday but its usually top games

    Was a really frustrating watch, we should have won easily. Telvin Smith was monster that day IIRC.


    It defiantly was. It was my first and only live NFL game, what a weird experience it was after seeing football on gamepass for the last 10 years. 

     

    I know a lot of fans hate them playing out of country but it is really nice as a fan from so long away to get the opportunity to go see a game. In London, it takes me 1h50mins and cost me like 30-50 $ for a plane ticket. If I have to go to Indianapolis which I will one day. It's a 15 hour flight and cost me at least +600$ and the games are out of travel season for me at least.

    luck was in that class too 

     

    i guess you could say that only the two best players on the team were from that draft 

     

     

    Well, u did say u left Luck out as he was a nobrainer.. so no credit to Grigson there..

     

    I think its way to early to compare the two classes.. Hooker might be the best safety in the league in a couple of years.. He might be the worst who knows. Only time will tell
