It would have been better if they went with a military/camo design in the team colors to honor the different branches of the military.

Nah. If they're going to piss and moan about politicizing the game of football, keep camo and military gestures out of it. It's gotta go both ways. Get the breast cancer stuff out. Just play the game and cut the hokey promotional stuff. This is the big leagues. Not some minor league baseball operation.

Now if they could forget London games they would really be onto something.

At least the Mexico city games are somewhat in the correct timezone. Overseas just pisses off a million fans so 60,000 get to go to a game.

NFL just boggles me, china???? aside from ticket sales they are never going to make money there because everything will be counter-fitted and sold at 10% the price before the team planes hit the ground for merchandise.

Plus it doesn't strike me as a football type society.

praise jesus.

hated the color rush. trying to attract people to the game that are captivated by bright colors strikes me as pathetic and desperate.

plus the bears uniforms looked like crap. i hate that blue jersey/blue pants look. the players look smaller and goofy. you would think it would look cool, but it doesn't.

not exactly crazy about the orange jerseys either. maybe if it was more of a burnt orange, it may look cool, but not the way it is now.

very true ... some of the knock-offs you can find now are pretty good quality, but of course the NFL doesn't get those proceeds

Goodell seems to think every country on earth is NFL ready and anxiously standing by just waiting for him to call ... I disagree but I'm just one of those pesky fans who don't matter
