Off to Wembley today to continue a long stretch of NFL games in London attended. I was at the first American Bowl preseason game in 1986 and haven't missed a London NFL game since (8 preseason games and 33 regular season).
If anyone else is going I'll be the one with the Calvin Johnson away shirt in white, dodgy bright green trouser, and a Lions tattoo on my ar

That's a great tradition man, congrats on that streak We will see more and more games played in other cities in Europe, which I think is really outstanding

...Even though kickoff here in California was 6:30am, I have no grounds to complain - still must see TV!

looking in on TV. { 1st game for a while} Bills Jags- London- - Q: the centre has no 50-59 number , WR/RB 0- 19?? Q: when did the NFL change numbers? also what others have moved?

thanks Pete.. got to be a bad idea in one way and good in the other- CB and RB - 20 - 49.. but understand WR as 80 - 89. also 11 - 19. LB 50 - 59 90 - 99 - thought they would have enough to cover players. But didn't see about OL C- not 50 -59? shows how much NFL I have seen - lost touch game today is all about the buck$$$ and those yellow flags.. Bills v Jags

Normally the OL wears 70s or 60s numbers. I paid attention to it yesterday. The Miami center actually wore the 58 (or 59?)

yeah old OL number was 50 - 59 C with 60 - 79 T- G - also DL 60 - 79, with 90 - 99 { same as a LB 50 - 59.. it was so the Refs could see who was down field to early - like one of the yellow flag plays London.

Here in Spain it looks we will be getting games some time in the near future, but in Madrid. If it was in Barcelona, I would surely go.

If it is in Madrid, it has to be the Bucs, Raiders or Lions to think going.

Ah well, at least I got to go see many Barcelona Dragons games in the 90s. Still remember the trashing the Admirals with Kurt Warner and Delhomme gave us back in 98! Yes, just before Warner went on to have the underdog perfect history of winning the Super Bowl next season with the Rams.

And also a great day when we played the Rhein Fire and the before the game act was Doro singing Burn It Up, the song she made for them!!

My selfish side would prefer London games as they are a doddle for me to get to, but I love the fact that Germany, Mexico and Canada have had games and others are in the pipeline.
My preference for a new one would be Italy, I'd sell the flat we don't own to get a ticket.
