The Good: London. The
National Football League (NFL) had their yearly game in London this
year and this got me to thinking if London might find itself with a team in the
future. There were already rumors speculating that London is trying to get a
team or at the very least a Super Bowl in their arena. A couple weeks ago I was
playing Madden and I decided to start a fantasy with the
Jacksonville Jaguars. Gutsy decision I know but I’m a sucker for
their new jerseys. After the season I moved the team from Jacksonville to
London as the London Black Knights. Interestingly enough, the owner of the
Jacksonville Jaguars,
Shahid Khan, has interest London. He has been
quoted saying that “Jaguars are the home team for London.” Not to mention that
he just became the new owner of
Fulham. It might not be long before we see a team,
not necessarily Jacksonville, move to London. The market, fan base, and
opportunities that London would provide would be an excellent business decision
for a few struggling NFL teams at the moment.
