They bring more eyeballs than any team.  NBC would have hem every Sunday if they could. 

Nine fucking overseas games.  I hate them and wish the NFLPA would stop them.

International games are all about growing interest and therefore revenue.

Futbol and Formula One global viewership contracts are worth more than NFL tv contracts.

You want the nflpa to say "no" to more money for players?

There will never be enough interest in American football outside the U.S. to make it worth while.  It will never be a grass roots game elsewhere because it's too expensive.  There's never going to be high school or college football programs in Germany or Spain or Brazil.  No real fan base.  There will never be a huge nfl contract for games on German or British TV. 

The players don't get a dime extra for playing international games. Those games actually take away from players in taxes and the fact networks subtract the costs of these games from the contracts.   Do you know how the nfl tv contracts and CBA work?   The networks have to spend a ton of money to set up for a single international game with lousy camera and replay setups.

Does the league office get money from these games? Possibly but unless you're an owner like khan stick in a shit market, the overseas games cost owners big money.  Herey gets 8 home games a year in a stadium he's invested $1.5 billion into, not counting his lease payments to Arlington.  Losing those 1000000 fans on game day hurts the team, the city, and the folks that work the game. 

Futbol and car racing are universal sports and aren't anything like the unique sport of football.

I doubt seriously the NFL is losing money playing international games.  And I couldn't give a shit that the players don't get paid any extra for their all inclusive paid trip to Ireland to play one game.  The other 16 games worth of pay more than make up for it.

I feel like them increasing the regular season games was mostly so they can kick over games to an International market. Is it profitable...idk about that I'm sure it's a big deal to go play a game in London or Berlin or Rio, Tokyo or Madrid...where ever they go it's going to give those international audiences a chance to see something they may never get to see in their life time so it's a big deal. No that may not create enough interest for those local areas to start high school football. If we're being honest the sport is widely considered unsafe on a global scale because...it's unsafe, expensive, promotes barbaric tendencies etc. Not exactly something Beijing wants to promote on the reg probably. 

To me it always looks weird playing these games overseas is because the venues aren't really suited for American Football. The crowds usually look like they are way too far back from the field. The energy just isn't the same as if it were in any number of NFL towns. The german fans usually really get into it though. But they probably still bring in a ton of eyeballs locally and people watching from home. So it's not really a fail for the NFL at all. For us over here it's waking up early on a Sunday and seeing the game on and that's not something most of us are dialed in on but there ares till going to be domestic audiences and when they are in those time zones I assume the games are broadcast in those markets so they are probably getting a lof of viewers in those international markets. Big deal for advertisers in those areas basically creates Super Bowl caliber ad opportunities. 

So yeah I'm firmly in the camp they wouldn't be doing it if it wasn't making money, it might even create new endorsement opportunities for players akin to what we're seeing in China with NBA ballers.

I think there's at least some nuance here. The players may have some complexity in tax reporting but maybe not that much more net tax depending on foreign tax credits and state taxes. But it's not really accurate to say they're just outright double taxed with no offset.

These games may or may not be at a net cost to the owners, but the league is also using them to grow revenue globally, which ultimately feeds the same salary cap system players benefit from.

And yeah, the players get an overseas trip on someone else's dime.

If you look closely at the crowds at those games, they're dotted with colors of virtually every NFL team, no matter which two are playing. The merchandise sales bump alone possibly covers any net game costs.

Post by: vegashog on May 15, 2026, 10:37 AM
the league gives teams a stipend to cover any extra cost, and the revenue made goes into a pot that all teams get an equal cut from (nfl says the average per game revenue is close to $50 million). while there probably will never be any real growth in american football overseas, the people in those countries love watching it and show up for the games. there's even an international version of game pass. there's no money being lost.

The U.S. audience continues to grow as seen in the size of the TV contracts hence the increasing salary cap, which is rooted completely in the tv revenue.  That is what is divided up equally to the 32 teams.  Everything else belongs to the team, hence why Jerry has a team worth about 15 billion. 

Mr Goodell believes at some point there will be a group of teams in Europe, which the league would likely charge 5 billion apiece for.  Who wants to be drafted to be an expat?  Where will the QBs come from? They don't have 32 decent ones now. 

Roger is going to kill the golden goose.  His stupid expansion of games exclusive to various streaming platforms is catching hell and he's about to announce a five game package to Netflix.  The sale of nfl media to espn should not have been approved. 

I'd love to see Goodell in dc defending his media decisions and why they are in line with the exemption. They've gotten a pass for years because the product was available free on network TV.  Now you need the networks, espn, nfl network, peacock, prime, and netflix.

Her dad's the position coach.  I'd guess there was a conversation had there ahead of time.  Women seem to hate it.  Men seem to say good for that guy.  But imagine being a dude in high school these days and knowing your competition is already some dude playing in the NFL.

honestly I think it's weird. This guy is 7 years older. She just turned 18 and she just graduated. But you know they've been dating longer. Maybe he's a good guy but no way I would let my daughter at 17 or whenever they started dating date a 24 year old when my kid isn't even done with HS. It's like that chick in the crash whose parents allowed her to basically move in at 17 with an older guy and do whatever the fuck she wanted and look how that turned out. Not saying g this is the same but let your kids be kids. What does a 24 who can drink do with an 18 year old besides fuck

Edit: her dad was his college position coach, finally saw that cleared up.  Anyway, maybe he doesn't drink at all.  Maybe the dude's the most wholesome guy to ever grace the NFL.  I actually don't know they've been dating longer.  I don't know if he's been banging her since her sweet sixteen party.  I don't know if he's been buying her and her friends alcohol on the weekends, or if he's actually done anything illegal at all.  If the dude was in college and waiting until she finally turned 18 to date her then that's definitely not the societal norm, but until her parents start saying she was groomed then it's not worth losing sleep over.

Also appears to still basically be Chicago judging by the map I saw. I'm not super familiar with the area but it's not like they moved across the lake or something. Not as bad as 49ners moving to San Jose for instance. Chiefs moving out into Johnson County, KS isn't a big deal either. 

For the city of Chicago it does mean something regarding tax revenue I'd imagine and that would probably be the only political flex to be had here.

nfl will not hold a supplemental draft for sorsby. here's part of their decision:

"The League does not have the complete record of the NCAA's investigation, and you did not provide any such materials with your Petition. Available information nonetheless indicates that, over the course of your collegiate career, you knowingly engaged in repeated and significant violations of NCAA rules designed to preserve the integrity of athletic competition. Reported conduct includes placing wagers on your own team and teammates and, to avoid detection, establishing or funding accounts in the names of intermediaries who placed bets on your behalf. There are also reports that you may have violated state criminal law.

Your Petition does not address these matters. Nor does it demonstrate accountability for your conduct or indicate whether, or how, you would adhere to the League's rules and policies governing the integrity of competition. Instead, even after receiving notice of the NCAA's decision rescinding your college eligibility in May, you sought to avoid the consequences of that determination through litigation rather than accepting responsibility for your actions, and you pursued entry into the NFL only after abandoning those efforts."

A blistering rebuke by the League and just hammers the shit out of Sorsby and his attorneys.  Lawyer saying it's against the CBA but it's all there in the doc where the league decides each year whether to have one or not.  They haven't had one in several years. 

Tech told him he would never play another down due to the b12 lawsuit.  His dumbass attorney thought he'd be a slam dunk for the nfl.  Nope they want nothing to do with him.  He'll relapse before the 27 draft, being a degenerate gambling addict.

Quote from: vegashog on Jul 11, 2026, 08:06 PMseahawks sold for a record $9.6 billion.

The last sale was redskins in 23 for $6.05 billion, so a 50% increase in 3 years in a less desirable market.  Who wins?  Jerry Jones.  Last valuation was $13 billion,  so if the market adjusts to same rate Cowboys now worth $20 billion.  He would never sell but when he's gone one has to wonder if the kids would sell for $25 billion.  That doesn't count all their other interests including the stadium lease that brings Jerry over $1 billion in extra revenue.

Diego Pavia released by Ravens.  Didn't even keep him for a camp arm to practice with DBs.  There are idiotic folks online who were actually thinking he'd beat out Lamar.  Not even a chance for practice squad.

Out on the street. Probably setting up an only fans for his mom.  Looking g for a jockey school.

Brandon Allen cut by giants.  He usually hooks up as a 3rd stringer but it might be the end of the line.  He made a lot of money and got a pension. 

The Browns exposed Green too much in preseason and likely scared they'll lose him to waivers to practice squad. He might not be an nfl qb but he can run like the wind.  You want to get him on the field somehow.
