00:00Our pro football story of the day is interesting.
00:06Roger Goodell decides to go with an international conversation
00:12and declare that there will be a team overseas soon,
00:20outside of the United States.
00:23Quote, at some point, there will be an NFL team outside the USA.
00:29I have no doubt that this will happen one day.
00:32Goodell talking to former NFL player Marcus Kuhn
00:36in an interview for a German broadcasting network, RTL.
00:40Goodell said that once an NFL team is established in a foreign country,
00:44its home field could host a Super Bowl.
00:48Quote, there are definitely international cities
00:51that could host something like that,
00:53but we would have to see an NFL team in such a city first.
00:59So that takes out the idea of any sending a Super Bowl overseas.
01:08So that's not going to happen, okay?
01:10So we don't got to worry about that.
01:13That's done.
01:15So we're not losing a Super Bowl until there's a foreign team.
01:19London is where the NFL is going to put a team.
01:22We know that.
01:23The question is, is it expansion?
01:26Is it one team?
01:28Or is it a whole division that they wind up starting?
01:31That's the debate that they've got, right?
01:33That's why they're playing in Spain.
01:34That's why they're playing in Germany.
01:36That's why they're playing in different parts of the UK.
01:40Scotland wants a game desperately.
01:43So that's why they're going over to these cities,
01:46because they want to see how many franchises they could put in Europe.
01:51Again, I talk about this all the time,
01:53but from a flying perspective,
01:54if I get on a plane and fly to Las Vegas from Boston, Massachusetts,
02:00okay, or from Providence, Rhode Island, on the Patriots,
02:04and I'm flying to Las Vegas, that is a five-hour flight, okay?
02:08It's five to five and a half hours,
02:10depending on flight time and depending upon the jet stream.
02:13So that's why I'm flying to Las Vegas.
