~~~ NOTE FROM CHRIS: ~~~
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said last week
that the league is considering holding a future
Super Bowl at London's new Wembley Stadium.
The Top 13 Reasons a British
Super Bowl Is a Bad Idea
- You think our stadium food is bad? Try deep-fried kidney pie on a stick.
- "... and he's brought down at the 36.576-meter line, just 7.62 centimeters short of a first down!"
- Football padding openly mocked by local rugby players.
- Halftime show will feature aging British pop stars trying to recapture lost glory... oh, wait.
- Freakish caricature mascots constantly being mistaken for Prince Charles.
- Inevitable "Mr. Bean Goes to the Super Bowl" movie cools American-British relations to pre-War of 1812 levels.
- Tragedy strikes in the Atlantic after Madden attempts to drive his bus to the game.
- When it comes to Terrell Owens, not even Neville Chamberlain would choose appeasement.
- The Raider Nation just isn't up to the required standards of belligerence and unruliness for British hooliganism.
- John Elway suddenly has the best teeth in the building.
- England = Camilla Parker Bowles
Super Bowl = wardrobe malfunction
If there is a God, never shall the twain shall meet.
- Even with the best NFL films voice, "On the sodden pitch of Wembley Stadium" just sounds wrong.
and the Number 1 Reason a British Super Bowl Is a Bad Idea...
- Do YOU want to hear John Madden boast about getting stuffed full of spotted dick while tailgating?
