Dare wrote:Just NFL greed seeing another way to screw the Rams over. In case you haven't noticed over the generations there is a clear east coast bias in both collegiate and NFL football. Funny how the Rams don't get to play in Hawaii. A whole lot of Rams fans would travel to Hawaii to see a game vs someone like the Raiders or even Seattle. Both fan bases would travel well. The travel impact isn't near as severe going from the US to Europe vs going from the US to Australia. Hell, even the toilet bowl water gets turned around.

Besides that everything in Aussie is toxic. Almost all the snakes and spiders are dangerous as well as the fish, crocs in rivers, lakes, ponds, and ocean, and even sharks in lakes and rivers. Hell they even got spiders that use webs to catch and eat birds. Oh yeah, our crew chief on our dustoff was born and raised in Melbourne. He invited me to go on leave with him but started warning me about everything. Stonefish in the ocean pretending to be a rock. LOL Gawd what a place. Hell even the male platypus is venomous. Keep the damn players on the plane. I will say this though, the women can be stunning. (that's the upside) :roll2:

Just trying to stir stuff up. Nothing new here.

Australia/New Zealand are great places to see. I went too both after graduating college and always wanted to go back, plus so many other places to see while on that side of the world. Now if they trade Stafford Im out.

I reiterate that they better get a week off (and NOT their bye) between their first game and their second. That is too much travel to responsibly, and safely expect them to play 2 games in the span of a week.

I imagine it will be like last year's Brazil game. Eagles/GB 1st week on a Friday. Didn't seem to hurt either team. Eagles got to play MNF week 2, though they lost to Atlanta.

GB won week 2 on Sunday...

I don't know man. There is a huge difference in travel time between the eastern US to Brazil and the western States to Austrailia.

I would just hate to see our season fubar'd due to a swath of injuries in the second week because of avoidable jet lag.
