    The NFL will stage four games in London and one in Mexico City next season, with the Jaguars, Chargers, Rams, Raiders and Buccaneers serving as hosts, the Associated Press reports.

    When the games will be played and who the opponents will be won't be announce until the spring, when the league schedule for 2019 is released.

    The Jaguars have a deal to play annually in London. The Chargers, Rams and Raiders are considered to be playing in temporary stadiums — the Los Angeles teams will move into a new facility being built in Inglewood that won't be ready next year — and the Raiders will be leaving Oakland for Las Vegas in 2020.

        greedy cocksuckers would play on ISIS field if there was enough money
        We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

              Sucks for the teams that have to play's fans. And, not only the fans, but everyone in the local economy that benefits from a game being played. You know, the economic benefits that the owners referenced when raping the taxpayers to pay for their stadiums?

                    It’s funny because it is probably true. The NFL really only cares about making money. If these owners were in another business where they provide a necessity, like grocery store owners, we would be paying top dollar for everything we eat. They are among the greediest S-O-Bs on the planet. They constantly look for ways to squeeze every dollar out of the fans, cities, communities and even the players.

                    32 teams dividing over $8 billion in just national TV revenue ($255 million each. That is after they give the players their 48% share). Add in local TV rights, radio, internet streaming, ticket sales, parking revenue, and concession sales and you have tens of millions more. And oh yeah, there is that little matter of team merchandise which generates another $470 million average for each team. (The cowboys had the highest sales last year with $864 million in merchandise sales - man their fans are REALLY idiots for shelling out that much for a team as bad as they have been!!!!).

                    So in JUST national TV contracts and merchandise each team averaged $725 million!!! Obviously they have player salaries, team expenses, stadium costs etc. but this figure doesn’t include local tv, tickets etc listed above. It also doesn’t include stadium naming rights, income from stadium ticket purchase rights (PSL etc) and a multitude of other income. Meanwhile they are tax exempt and publicly funded stadiums with local tax abatements.

                    Capitalism is one thing, but when you really look at the NFL it’s just pure, disgusting greed!!!
