whole page made excuses about why Nigeria shouldn’t get it that arguably apply to the rest of the continent :deadrose: :mjlol:

They should expand more out to the UK and Mexico. Don’t they already host multiple games in those respective places?

I'd add Germany and Brazil to that list. Maybe Australia as well, though they already have their own kind of football. But Africa, no chance. Too much equipment needed and too many rules.

agree, still interesting to see the NFL’s approach as futbol and basketball already have a stront foundation with most Africans

People are talking infrastructure, like South Africans aren't dealing with load shedding on a daily basis :heh:.

Lagos and Accra should be the only options realistically, as they actually have NFL players in the league.


They mean stadium infrastructure, lodging, and travel for the rich. South Africa has hosted World Cups in football, cricket, & rugby. Nigeria does not have that type of resume.


Germany hosted some games last year and Brazil is getting one with few, if any, players in the league.
