Current Event #5- The NFL in London

The NFL is considering putting an NFL team in London, England. The NFL already does three games a year in London but are considering putting a team there, and possible hosting a Super Bowl there. The NFL would increase profits and the city, London, would as well. In 2013, two games were held there earning a profit of $52 million and if they switched to four games per season they would add an extra $42 million to that $52 million profit, putting them at a $94 million profit. If a team was put there, they would make a profit of $252 million per season, and the city alone would have a $165 million profit. If the Super Bowl was held there, there would be a conflict in finding a good time in America and Britain. I think that it would be pretty cool, Football is beginning to expand more and more. I would like to the sport expand even farther by the time I’m an adult.

My teacher Mr. Bautista said, “It would be kind of confusing if there was a team there because of the time difference and their used to Futbol, which we call Soccer.” The author of this article is unbiased.

An NFL team could have home-field advantage in London
