    Super Bowl moving to foreign soil?
    Posted: Sunday May 06, 2007 07:25AM ET
    NFL commissioner Roger Goodell touched on the possibility of the Super Bowl being played outside the United States. "We have talked in-house about that," he said. "It is truly an international event. London, Toronto, and Mexico City have been discussed. Because of time-difference issues, those are the logical ones. Nothing could happen before 2012.

    I swear if they do that, I'm going to protest the NFL by boycott. This is the stupidest idea I've heard in a long time! Football and The Super Bowl are American tradtions. Keep it here. :mad:

    Totally agree. Can you imagine if it were played in a foreign country and they tried to 'theme' it as well , eg In England it would all be Bowler hats and beef eaters , Mexico , sombreros and donkeys :lol:
