This could be trouble for the bears. The Bucs are a decent team and Lovie's horseshoes are going to have a tough time making it through customs.

I hope this is not a Bears home game. I could see the McClaskey's trying to make season tickets holders buy it.

Bucs are home team.

I don't like this outside the country stuff.

Yeah, going to Canada for a game is one thing. At least they are in the same time zones as America. Flying to London is just foolish. This has been and will continue to be a bad idea.

This will be the first home TV broadcast of a Bucs game in 2 years! They haven't sold out in 2 years and thus no home TV,

Do they still have something like that Concord supersonic jet flying? Might make things easier.

OK, who is going to have the English angle on this game??? Jay Cutler great great grandfather born in England?

I just realized Mully probably creamed his pants when he saw this. Free trip to England for him.

this is a real bad idea for the nfl..if the bucs can't sell out home games (they were a decent team last year) then move to another american city. the nfl will never become popular in europe, it is an american sport..much like soccer will will never be popular here.
