Just like soccer to America, it won't translate.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

No problem with translation. There is a large established fan base in the U.K. Personally I have been watching since 1982.
<---------
This season the Sky Sports weekly coverage includes 2 early Sunday games, 2 late Sunday games, the Sunday night game the Monday night game and highlights packages.
Some reports say there was a million applications for Wembley tickets. No doubt this experiment will be a commercial success, so will it lead to more games being moved and eventually a franchise being set up outside of the US.

It's pathetic IMO.
If my beloved West Ham started playing thier "soccer" games overseas I would be a tad pissed off. The REAL fans cant go to watch the teams that theys been supporting for years, paying stupid amounts of money to watch them week-in, week-out.
Just another example of money ruining sports, I feel sorry for the true fans in the US if this starts to become a regular occurance.

bringing the NHL was sweet, we have NFL, its called rugby.
No on a serious note, its cool to have the sports across, its just that all the sports big in the US are just not at all played here, hockey, baseball, 'football'
