This. If that really is his plan I gotta hand it to Goddell, he's got a set on him trying to expand that game to Toronto and London.

I think it's an exercise in futility but if it did work I'd be very impressed.

I can say with 100% certainty that England will reject Football.

Can't see it happening either. I have a feeling they will expand very soon i just don't think they'll be that ambitious.
- Sabresfan-365

Which there in lies an issue.

So they expand to two international teams then go under. Now what one goes to LA and the other.......... Is Utah the biggest market without a team within 3-5 hours?

agree once a year sure but week in and week out when the EPL is going on no chance.

Red Sox trading like crazy today!

I agree!
Soccer is THE number 1 sport in that country, and that will NEVER change.

Looks as if they're building for 2015. St louis has done some pretty good work as well.

I used to watch darts for hours on end.

THink the only international way to make things work would be to hold training camps in major cities. take 4 base in London then have a 3 game pre season schedule

thats how I was with curling. My Canadian blood comes out on that one

I live in Oakland. Besides that, I have no idea what the hell you're talking about.

Prove it.

Been to equal numbers Giants and As games. Ballpark in SF is vastly superior, team in Oakland is easier to root for.

There's a mention in there that the trust will probably extend the date for bids.

Separately, the Wilson estate is expected to extend the July 29 bidding deadline, according to two sources close to the situation — perhaps because it was disappointed after only three bidders materialized.

So supposedly TP bid 1.3 billion and they are disappointed?!?!?! I call BS!

I go to a couple of A's games a year when I feel like I haven't paid enough money for beer in a while.
Still haven't been to a Giants game.
Sabres Play the Sharks October 25th if you're interested.
Saturday afternoon game.

It looks like a bunker. very similar to the Islanders Arena....all grey concrete as far as the eye can see.

From the looks of it a true master piece. Like whoever created it has a job here with a blank check

If im not mistaken isnt it the cookie cutter 80's multi sports stadium?

It's probably because they know that none of the other 2 bidders can compete with Pegula so there's no bidding war.

But I doubt anyone else jumps into the fray knowing what we all do about Pegula. They should just get the show on the road and pick someone.

I think Morgan Stanley is very disappointed in only 3 bids
