I love them but we should never wear them at home.

This part I agree with, but it would be difficult to see them otherwise since we're the only team in all of football that has made their white jersey their home jersey.

The Air Coryell teams wore white at home and so did the Skins when Gibbs took over (and not just when Dallas rolled into town).

Right and that's fine, the whites are iconic. But usually 1 or two teams have made us wear blue each year anyway. That should be the extent of it.

Speaking of that, on Inside the NFL this week Belichick had a segment on FG blocks and on an old RC Owens clip he actually called them the Redskins. Wonder if he got a call from the office or if he's above that.
 


It would be difficult from a logistics side if the game were played overseas. It would mean dropping the game to a 1 PM or 4 PM start in the eastern time zone. That means no prime time Super Bowl.

Yeah, but Mexico City or Sao Paulo would work.

Depends where. Mexico or Canada wouldn't be a big deal logistically.

Other places obviously it would be more of an obstacle but I'm sure they could figure it out. If they played in London for example and started at 9 local time, a 4pm start on the east Coast and 1 West Coast probably wouldn't be a big deal.

They spent a long time moving the game to where it is now in prime time. That would be a real tough sell.

I don't know. The networks jump for joy at getting a super bowl, I doubt the time matters that much. It would still get high viewership and high dollars for ads, which is what they care about.

Lookit, I am not saying it is impossible, but it is far from a sure thing.

Who the fuck would want to go to either joint? The stadiums are horrid.

The game is expensive anyway, but holding the game overseas would really punish the average fan. Only the fatcats could afford it.

Again, the NFL asks where is the problem here...
