You mean the NFL going international. American Football has been played here in the UK for 40+ years, let alone all the other countries worldwide with national leagues. Yes, it's not pro level (though we have sent players to the NFL, including our own Efe Obada).

I get the grumbling but look at association football (or soccer as you guys like to call it) started off as an amateur sport in Britain nearly 170 years ago and look at it now.
