Stupidest executive statement? Ever?

Super Bowl may be in London, Goodell says - NFL - MSNBC.com

What?!? London the city that is 6 hours ahead of the U.S.? The city were the average temp in Feb is like 20 degrees?

The freaking SB is an "AMERICAN" institution Roger. Get a clue would ya they call Soccer "Football" over there so maybe you were confused they care a darn about OUR game???

Yeah he's going to have a hard time selling this one. Cities build new Stadiums in hopes of getting a SB to bring big bucks to the city and advertisment for the cities. It would be like shooting yourself in the foot when it comes to negociating contracts. The SB will be more of a Olympic host city bid going that route.

BAD JU JU!!!

I see what he is trying to do, and change is often looked upon with disgust at first. The Commish wants to grow the NFL to a world wide power.......The NBA is doing this very thing right now. Although I think this line of thinking is a little too soon for the NFL

Yeah, that ranks right up there with the Geico commercials with a gecko with an english accent, Well I don't live in England, why do I have to listen to that acdcent, give me any other American accent. Hell, anything to me would be better. I don't have anything against the English, I just don't live there and I doubt there are many of their customers do either.
