I really thought a single game per season was a perfect scenario for us.The NFL Europe existed from 1995-2007 and consisted mostly of teams from Germany with additional teams in Amsterdam, London, Barcelona and one in Scotland (the one in London actually only lasted until 1998).The teams consisted of mostly US players who weren't able to crack NFL rosters and some guys being on the bubble of NFL rosters. The Amsterdam Admirals once featured the QB tandem of Kurt Warner and Jake Delhomme.The league obviously wasn't a success after all as it folded and while the regular season games at Wembley mostly sell out the NFL should not make the mistake of thinking Europeans would support a team here in the long haul.In addition they would have to do something about the cap in this case as players would have to pay way more taxes in GB.</blockquote>
