I never said I liked having the game over there, but I said it makes sense.
Say the Giants are one of the teams that lose a home game. Consider the following.
• If the stadium in Germany sells out, then ticket revenue is the same as if they sell out Giants stadium
• The game will still be televised, so the revenue there will still be the same
• If it is a success, the NFL's world audience grows. This is NOT even close to NFL Europe
• Giants fans might be angry, but will they be angry enough to stop watching the Giants play? Will they be angry enough to stop sellout out Giants Stadium? I would say NO to both questions.
From the NFL's perspective, MONEY, this is not a bad decision. Giants fans are not going to stop supporting the team because of it.
As for Chad, that was hilarious today. Telling TJ to get fined and he will pay it, priceless.
