"London Calling: The Globalization of the NFL".

The NFL wants to expand its operations in order to reach a bigger market in the World which will produce more money.  The NFL wants to reach 25 billion a year and can't reach that until they reach a wider population.  There goal is to broadcast there games to hundreds of countries just like the premier league which is England's top soccer league.  London is a very popular place which has many other countries around it such as the entire England, Ireland, Germany, and France.   London has a brand new stadium and has the possibility of creating loyal fans in order to sell out the stadium.  It will create some more fun in the league as games are played in London and will be broadcasted throughout more networks overseas.  However, the NFL might not be successful because of the inexperience the NFL has with a team in another country.  This uncertainty may lead to an unsuccessful team such as unhappy players, traveling to US takes a toll on players bodies especially if they have to travel on the west coast.  This will ultimately make gaming planning hard and practices shorter as they would have to prepare to travel in the air for long periods of time.  I would like to see another NFL team in London and would want to see its success rate.  It will bring many jobs to London and across the world with its broadcasting the game worldwide.  This will make the economy better and will generate billions of dollars to the NFL.
