Is the Fleur-de-lis allowed in London?

Bottom line. This shouldn't be happening. Gayle should still be going scorched earth after the no call.

I wonder if the game will take place at Tottenham Stadium or Wembley Stadium.

In principle I agree with you, but as a season ticket holder I really care less about sending a game against a division opponent than an opponent that we may see once every 3+ years especially if they choose an AFC opponent.

I'm sure the majority of people in New Orleans feel the same about that as the majority of people in London feel about a Saints game in Wembley. My apologies if that offends you as a soccer fan.



I would not consider myself a "soccer fan" but I would go to that game for the novelty of it. Just like Londoners do for NFL games there.

This is seriously fricking bullshite.

Teams that didn't get a "9th" home game last year should not have to surrender a home game for London next year. That means we will not be benefitting from the Extra home game until 4 years after the 17 game schedule implementation.

you're assuming we won't have a home game in mexico in that 4th yr.

the other bullshite note is we seem to lose home games due to hurricanes every few yrs.

Well...the author of the article in the Morning Advocate...failed to fully explain just HOW this 'selection process' works ! I.E. Is it solely an NFL 'scheduler' decision ? Do the 'selected teams have ANY input ? Does a 'selected team' gain ANY type of advantage ? Are ALL NFL teams in the 'selection pool' ? If not...WHY not ? Is there any type of 'equitable' rotation philosophy ? Does Roger make the 'selections' ? WHY would you select a team which only had 7 home games the prior year ? Is RULE #1...what-ever it takes to best f#@& the Saints, because I hate them ? And lastly....WHY oh WHY is there zero 'push-back' from the Saints front office ?????

And if we are good enough to play in one we host, they will use the referees to cheat for the other team, and screw us out of it.

Any idea what date this might occur? Some people are good at figuring this stuff out.
