49ers likely to play Eagles in London and lose a home game

and to only think, if dallas only lost yesterday, we woulda been playing them.


URRGH

Why does it have to be our HOME game? Go screw some east coast team.

the NFL wants the Niners in red jerseys so they can market them to all those Man U, Liverpool & Arsenal fans....

I know, I really want us to play Dallas in San Fran, it's been what 6 years since we played the Cowboys at home...

Yeah, and conveniently that is the year of the NFL strike...

This is what happens when you have a team that hasnt made the playoffs in almost a decade & not having a New Stadium hurts.
Why are we forfeiting our home game & not Philly
EASY they are a playoff team & they have a new stadium.
I dont buy the bull the Comish says about they want the generate more ppl from Europe to become fans of the NFL & in this case fans for the niners & Eagles

this is a sorry move & i dont like it one bit they should of sent Seattle over there i dont think there is any Hawks fans overseas anyways.

plus we already played out of the states a few years back when the niners traveled to Mexico.

Sucks for all my fellow Niners Faithful back in the Bay Area... but it means that I will be able to go see my beloved Niners play for the first time since I moved over here in 2001! I may live here but I am born and bred Bay Area through and through... I will represent!

I'll be in Ireland, so i'll make my way over to london and go to the game

I do pretty much agree. Philadelphia is closer to England than San Francisco is..

This would be a BAD decision by Jed or whoever makes the decision not only lose a home game, but tire out your players with such a long flight and time change.

I guess the plus side of this is that it'll be televised nationally. Right??

Yeah

coo then.

I don't think the Patriots - Bucs game was nationally televised though.

It won't be nationally televised since they are gonna play at 1 pm est. to accommodate us europeans, since who would want to go to a game that starts at 2:30 am?

It wasn't neither was the Miami and Giants game a few years ago so don't count on it. This better be a road game... we would really get f**ked over if it was a home game.
