World Bowl

[GB Skin OT]

Did u see the World Bowl in the States ? NFL Europe is not as good since they took our teams off us (first London and then Scotland) but the event was great,fantastic stadium and atmosphere and very well presented (well apart from having to listen to Manfred Mann play the halftime show:) ), enjoyed Dusseldorf,drank a lot,met some great people (lots of US military who spoke to us coz we had our team jerseys on,locals and bar staff from US & Canada) and had a great time in general.
Had a flight back at 7am Sunday morning to London as we had to play a game that got called off due to a waterlogged pitch,couldnt change the flights :banghead: 1 1/2 hours sleep........
Thought there were some good players on show, despite the rushing yardage thought a couple of the Frankfurt o-line stank (wont name numbers) big time, cant stand seeing a guy get downfield and then pull up on a linebacker or d-back.
If you didnt make it this year would reccommend it next year if you are in Germany !!

Why do you think the folded the London and Scotland franchises (and Barcelona for that matter)? Was it attenance related as it appears to be when you watch the games?

I wanted to watch some games this year but they only showed them on the NFL Network, which I don't have. Kinda pissed me off to tell you the truth

If you had Sunday Ticket, they also showed them on channel 740 I believe.
