Only problem I see is the airfare for the family members of the players. But even then the NFL could and should cover those costs if they are gonna take it overseas.
You make a good point but I have not argued against the idea out of bigotry. Instead, the London idea seems to me like putting the cart before the horse. Once London has an NFL franchise, then it will have every right to host the game. Until then, however, London is not part of the NFL universe. Therefore there is no reason to make fans, players, and family members travel so far.
