The NFL announced Tuesday that a third regular-season game will be added to the London schedule for the 2014 season. The Jacksonville Jaguars, Atlanta Falcons and Oakland Raiders will each play one home game at Wembley Stadium next year. "Our fans in the UK have continued to demonstrate that they love football and want more," Goodell said. "Both of this year's games in London sold out quickly. The fan enthusiasm for our sport continues to grow. By playing two games in the UK this year, we are creating more fans. We hope that with three games in London next year we will attract even more people to our game."

I dont like this at all. I think were stepping over the line with another game. I think 2 is enough to have played over there
One idea would be to send the Raiders and Eagles over there for a game and after "London" sees the behavior of those two fan bases, they might refuse to host any future NFL games. Right?!? :bolt:
If there are any Raiders fans from the states going to the Raiders game in London, I hope they know that they won't be able to get any sharp objects past airport security.
