A Super Bowl in London would be Super

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
Now settle down there and think it through. Are you going to be in the stadium where they hold the Super Bowl? Probably not, face facts.

So why not have the Super Bowl in London. It would be cool and if you did get tickets, then you could make a trip out of it as well.

Kurt Warner asks 'You want me to play where?'

The NFL needs to think of its future expansion anyway.

The league is as popular as ever, as evidenced by the 39 million people who watched the draft last month. Yes, that’s right, more people watched the annual selection meeting of college players than they did playoff action or marquee matchups in the other big American professional sports. How much more popular can the NFL get in the United States?

The room for growth and expansion is across the pond, and Commissioner Roger Goodell and company realize that. Baseball and basketball have grown exponentially internationally over the last 20 years, with the increase in competitions like the World Baseball Classic and the Olympics as proof of that. If those sports can catch on elsewhere, why not attempt to spread the word about our most popular and exciting diversion? And with the real product, not the old NFL Europe model.

Oh, and if you get tickets to the London Super Bowl and you have an extra one, there is this guy that writes blogs and goes by the moniker Squibster and loves football and is forced to root for the Lions and would just love to go.
