Why play a home game in England

[gabriel18]

For a team that just relocated , the Rams have only 2 home games in the first 7 weeks . Not that home field meant much today , but 2 home games in 2 months is a bad idea .

After the relocation ordeal, StanK's gonna have to generate as much revenue as much as possible. We have England this year, and we're playing in China next year against the Whiners baring any league intervention.

For the love of. This has been answered endlessly. Part of the deal to relocate to lala land was to play a game overseas for the next 3 years.

Also, I think it has a lot to do w/ sharing the field w/ USC. So put of the deal was being on the road early and often. To save the field from getting ruin.

because then us English fans can get to see the suck in real life and spare you guys for a change ??

Don't forget that hosting a Super Bowl now means committing to an International Series game as well.

They won't have another home for a month . LA fans are going to have a hard time rooting thier team when they have only had two home games till November. That is unlucky scheduling to say the least .

We all know the reason... it doesn't change it from being stupid and bad for winning... especially a team that hasn't won in a decade or more.

Stan is trash until I see proof of anything else... but I'm sure some people like him because the team is back in cali.

I don't see how games in England and China would generate more money than 6 more Home games in front of 85-90K Fans!!

Part of the deal for relocating to LA was to play 3 home games overseas, since teams typically don't like giving up a home game (so it was good leverage for the NFL) as well as market the Los Angeles team as a global team and not just a regional one.
