I hate this shit, especially when it means we lose a true home game in its place

remember though,  they only do it in years where you have an extra home game,  so the season ticket holders still get their 8 home games.

That's right, forgot about that.

I'm one of the weirdos that love a 9:30 am EST start for football on Sunday. Bring it on.

Yeah, wake up with a nice cup of Bailey's coffee and turn on the game.  I agree, it's not all bad. B)

Well played, sir.....that's my Sunday morning drink as well. Then just one Bloody Mary at noon and we're off for football.

In 2022 we played a game over there. Now, two years later we play another. Since the last time we played there every other team has not, perhaps only about 10 teams have. Why are some teams not required?

I remember being in London in 2013 when the Vikes were there to play the steelers. I didn't even remember they were playing there as I was in town for other reasons. Saw the signs walking on the street one evening. Never went to the game too many other great things to do in that city.

The Vikings & some other teams have established marketing agreements over seas, they probably volunteered!

IT would be a hoot to see the Vikings play a real game in London. That stadium is supposedly awesome. 

Maybe someday.

I feel like no team should get 9 true home games, when other teams only get 8.  That seems like such a huge imbalance for the league to let occur.

It'll be corrected when they move to 18 game season.

I think the Vikings are undefeated in London.

Or when they expand the international schedule so every team travels to a foreign destination every year.

Wilfs expressed a desire to play more games there.  The league is happy to find teams volunteering to give up home games.
