The NFL is subjecting London to the Browns in 2025. Still paying them back for the tea taxes, I guess.

Late start for me on the banter. So much going on today between work and home. Plus, my wife's cousin is flying in from Miami with her two daughters and staying with us for a few days. Not sure why she would pick this time of year, but whatever.
Is she one of those, "I've never seen snow" types? Because otherwise, I can't imagine a solid reason for coming north this time of year.

I think she's one of those, "the airfare was cheap because no one else wants to come there" types.
Like I said, I can't imagine another SOLID reason for coming. Lol
I'm just lucky I got out of having to pick them up from the airport.

It was inevitable since they wind up playing upwards of 4 games there. I'm not sure what is in store for next season, but I can't imagine there will be less games than this past year.

Probably not. Though, I do wonder why, if they're intent on trying to generate interest over there, they keep sending the shittiest teams?

Case in point - the Jets and Jaguars are also going to London this season. They're also going to Spain next year, along with a return trip to Germany.

There was recently a commercial on television where they referred to Quitter's Day. Not very effective marketing because I can't recall what the product was.
It's a smart watch with motivational, tracking and goal setting features.

Is that what we really want to do if we're trying to promote the sport?

Another frigid start to the day, 11 out right now. Boiler is humming.
It's pretty freezing here too. I thought it was supposed to have warmed up by now.
I'm not even sure if we've been above freezing yet this year. And according to the long range forecast, we're still more than a week away from a break. And even that is only a high of 33. Woof.
Just started snowing here.  First time in three years.
