The Steelers will play the Vikings in Ireland

The league will stop at nothing to make an extra buck.
Soon, it will be like 2 or 3 a team a season.

 

Good thing this is against a NFC team.....

 

So is it a home game for Steelers or Vikings?

 

for steelers....

 

Steelers gonna get a whoopin' in Ireland.

 

I am not a fan at all when it comes to all of these International games. Sure it would be cool to experience once but city residents are paying a ton of taxes to owners to build and maintain teams in their home town and are getting fleeced by them playing overseas. It’s the National Football League. Not the International Football League. Teams should be required to offer huge discounts on all travel, hotels and give food vouchers to season ticket holders. Those season ticket holders should be prevented from selling the package deal for over 15% profit at best. Can’t wait til Gooddell is gone.

 

The Vikings are doing that in consecutive weeks this season.

 

I don't agree with expanding out of country but I'm old. I disagree with the DH and inter league play in MLB. Although I'm happy for any European Steeler fans who get a chance to see them.

We will beat the Vikings in honor of all those who perished over there at the hands of the Vikings long ago. Payback time. Go Steelers!

 

Next year they're talking about replicating the Ice Bowl* down in Antarctica on the Ross Ice Shelf.

Several Penguin players are expected to attend.

* The NFC Championship on December 31, 1967 between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys was the coldest game ever at -13°F and a wind chill of -48°F.

 

Expect this to happen before the end of the decade. For that matter, expect the league to do so by 2027 or 2028.

 

This is the 2nd time this has happened to screw up my chances of seeing the Steelers play live. Last time in the rotation where they played the NFC North and it would be in MN was the game they moved to London during Bell's rookie year.

 

Why couldn't they pick the Bears? Come on the Irish Rooney's vs Halas' Bears or better yet they Rooney v Mara Steelers/Giants

 

Home game Vs away game. Stupid I know but that is why.
