They were both predicted to have good seasons and they both have talent, so hope the game turns out to be good.  Great to hear you had a good party....London is my favorite city to visit.....always had a great time when I have been there.

LA is not a good sports town.  They would never support an expansion team or transplanted team.  Expansion teams lose and LA is too fair weather to support a loser.  On top of that, they'd have get through all the typical CA red tape that is involved in building a stadium.  It'll never get done.

I think the real thing is to build a stadium near the fanbase, as LA loves a winner...just look at the Lakers and Dodger thru the years/  But you are probably right, i don't think they have the patience to put-up with an expansion team while it grows....spoiled.

Great,

A larger breeding ground for more shit-brainedness. Pretty soon this will be a world populated with uninteresting humans.

Gee TA, I kinda figured you might be into football, baseball or sports in general since does it consists of mostly highly educated coaches, trainers and yes, even a lot of the players that apply strategy and science along with statistics for each player and team consisting over the course of a season. What me to go on?

BTW, have you figured out whether the little light in the refrigerator stays on when you close the door?

See TA, the above mentioned is seriously waaay beyond you to even come close to criticize. You have no idea what you have got yourself into. Dolt!

What is the purpose of Coaches and why are they always angry?   ???

My personal observation and hypothesis is that its just a meme and that has been established and followed year after year.  I mean they aren`t actually doing anything, they aren`t the ones chasing the other men and their balls around.  Perhaps the Coaches like the role of a Daddy figure so that when the costumes come off in the locker room and the season is over, he can invite them all to the team Christmas Party where each player can bounce up and down on his lap and tug on his Santa beard while his Offensive Coordinator fixes Eggnog Daiquiris for this all male celebration.

People that follow it understand the rules with no problems...most kids do as well since someone will have a copy of john madden football. From what I can see its very much london/ rugby players that follow it (rugby is big in london and the west country)
There will be large parts of the country where people have never seen a game, but put it this way, nearly every male friend I have in london will be able to follow an NFL game, and some have a team they follow. 49ers packers patriots cowboys and dolphins are the popular teams. I support the eagles.

Got to say though this game has been dreadful...only one field goal in 3 quarters so far...yawn
