Goodell could really make the Saints go on the show?

"A source in the room told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport the league passed a rule Tuesday during the NFL Fall Meeting that will compel one team per year to participate in the HBO/NFL Films joint venture, "Hard Knocks."

The league still will ask for volunteers. If one is not forthcoming, a team will be appointed. All organizations will be eligible with the exception of those that have a first-year head coach; teams that have made the playoffs in at least one of the last two seasons; and teams that have participated in the previous 10 seasons. "

Owners pass 'Hard Knocks' rule at NFL Fall Meeting - NFL.com

So I guess Goodell would be the one enforcing it but the decision comes from the owners themselves.

I prefer hard knock over a home game in another continent. Our luck we might get both.

I agree.

I'll take Hard Knocks this year, if it happens in Mississippi.

I read on NFL.com that something like the last 6 teams on hard knock all have improved their record from the year before.

The London games are a disgrace. And thats from somebody living within 15 miles from the stadium that holds the game.

In what way? I have a lot of friends that has been flying over from Sweden who has really enjoyed them. And especially enjoyed the possibility of watching real NFL games closer to home.

If it happens like once every 10 years I think its okay but if it was every other year I think it would be a problem.
