2010 International Series
It’s round about this time of year when us folk of the UK begin to get REAL excited about the NFL. Why you ask? No, not the play-offs… It’s only a few weeks before we get the e-mail about Wembley tickets going on sale for the International series, that’s why!
Although we don’t know what teams will be heading over, the chance to see a live NFL game isn’t something that comes around every day (only once a year I’m afraid, kind of like Christmas except there’s no fat dude wearing red – unless the Cardinals turn up). The buzz is amazing, and considering the Patriots v Buccaneers game sold out in 72 hours, I’m expecting the same thing to happen this year. Luckily I got my interest registered early on. Now Christmas rarely comes twice a year, so pinch me because I must be dreaming, but the talk is that we’re getting two games this year!
You can guarantee that at one, if not both of the games us guys at MAC will be meeting up for a few beers and a bit of banter which makes the game all the better. As the old joke goes… A Redskins fan, Miami fan, and Ravens fan walk into a pub. You’ll probably get to see the outcome later!
Anyway, enough ranting from me. What games would you guys want to see at Wembley this year?

Obviously I’d like to see the Redskins, but I can’t see that happening. Otherwise, I’d love to see the Texans or Titans.
But really, it’s likely to be the Jaguars, Raiders, Lions or Rams. A team that can’t sell out its own stadium on a weekly basis!

I still think we will see the 49ers this year. Maybe the return of the Dolphins to celebrate that they were the first home team? No? Oh well. In that case I think it will also be one of – Raiders, Redskins, Broncos.
It doesn’t matter really, I am looking forward to it no matter who plays.

49ers-Eagles is a rumour. I’ll be there in my Cowboys jersey…laughing at both!
