I say the Fins win this game. I think they'll be pumped up for it in a new place, lots of new fans, they'll play a loose game. I think the Giants might be a little guilty of looking forward to their bye week and thinking this will be an easy win.

As for having games overseas, count me out. I hope this is just a one time thing, but I know it won't be. Expanding internationally makes sense for basketball and baseball, not so much for football.

You do know that is a minority right and not every fan of "soccer" likes a fight? Considering how gigantic the game is globaly you want to bring it down with a tiny % of idiots. I'm not for one second saying it doesn't go on, it does. You have your Ultras in Italy and Turkey who'll fight and you have your little groups in England who'll fight. These idiots are a tiny, tiny percentage of "soccer" fans and the majority of fans will go to a game, watch a game and come home from a game just like you or any other person going to watch a game of their chosen sport/s.

Because you're making a great player and tremendous, classy person off the field look like a school yard punk. That's why I'm pissed. Chris doesn't trash his former team unlike another former Dolphins wide receiver. He paid his respects to the team that gave him his oppertunity, unlike the other punk who was extremely ungrateful.

I'm emo? HAHA! Now I've seen it all. I better go write music about how I hate my father while wearing my drapped black wardrobe.

I was commenting on the london issue then you hijack the thread...once again...talking about my sig...which I didnt mention in this thread. And yes it is looking pretty drab for you with that WA weather and your teams record. Embrace the emo aqwaaaaahhhh. You are the appitomy of the term.

I'm really excited about this game. There's a 26 foot Jason Taylor robot playing. It's gonna be cool!

Yeah that's what I thought. My deepest sympathies for the fins that they are now being supported by fans like this guy (sarcastic tone). Cant even respond within 38 minutes. Seriously man...chill out. Dont get pissed at me cuz your ******ty team traded away one of your best players. Sawwy! Muahahahahahahaahahhhhhh!!!

I'm just saying, you're making a very classy player look like a punk by giving him a quote that trashes his former team. He never said that, you should'nt quote him on something he didn't say, pal.

Epitome, not appitomy.

This is the internet...not church. We talk trash. GET OVER IT! Can't you see that I am being facetious? If I could make a thought bubble instead of quotations I would have done it. Again...GET OVER IT!

Sorry, I didn't realize that I was dealing with the spelling police. If you want to correct someone then maybe you should be a shining example of literary excellence.

Opportunity, not oppertunity...

It bothers me too, I always thought of Mr. Kraft as one of us (being a fan), and he seemed to run the football club with best interests towards the fans, but this is a terrible idea.....
