Moderators Zico Posted January 23, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 23, 2020 Its wrong to me that they do What did oilers fans do when they moved to Tennessee? Still support the tennesse oilers? And then what when they changed it's name to Titans? And now do they support the Texans, but talk about the club history of the oilers like its the same team?

There's a few others I couldn't see moving. Chicago, Pittsburgh, Dallas and New England won't shift too far from home. Possibly some more. Those who don't fill the ground regular will like the raiders be on the look out for places to move for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miami are the one that puzzles me. Obviously got a legacy but the team is shit and the place is empty most weeks from what I can see. Must be very lucrative on the commercial side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FSU and the Gators don't struggle, there's obviously something going on to kill the NFL vibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both New York teams unless someone takes a gamble at one of them moving out of New Jersey into maybe Brooklyn? San Fran and Washington also no chance imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't stay still for 2 mins. Feel sorry for the fans. Thankfully my lot (Denver) will never move, I suppose constant full houses helps.

It’s my one stadium that I want to see in my lifetime if I see no other as a Redskins fan I would also like to visit before they are renamed as the Washington Native Indians Whilst I’m no woke snowflake the “Redskins” moniker seems ripe for a rebrand particularly with the Clintonesque Washington metropolitan elite desperate for something to throw at the rednecks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birch-chorley Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Just catching up with NFL this week on iplayer Didn't realise they present the trophy to the CEO of the team rather than head coach or captain Found it a bit barmy, imagine that here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Looking for a Kansas City win tonight Mahomes is definitely the best QB around Edited February 2, 2020 by boltondiver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_spencer Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Just happy to be able to enjoy the game no matter who wins. Missed the panthers/broncos final and I walked into the bar just as the bad snap sailed over Paytons head Vs the seagulls Got a feeling it will be a high scoring game.

MancWanderer Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Absolutely fucking gutted. Got to be on the road at 6.00am tomorrow for a massively important meeting in the office down in the shires tomorrow so no way can I stay up. Got it on record so will stay off radio/phone to try to watch it “live” on Tuesday night when I get back. Doubt it will happen Chiefs win. Mahomes is monumental this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobarp Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Shootout although I do have a hunch 49ers defense might show up big time tonight. I like both teams. Think mahomes is exceptional but I’m going for a 49ers win and will have a small bet on the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
