It would be a relief if he'd move the team. I'm begging for a reason to quit at this point.

Honestly, me too. My home state team being here is the only reason I’m still hanging on to the nfl. I don’t really watch other teams. The nfl isn’t that appealing to me anymore

Unlikely.

1) Tepper just signed a 20 year commitment with charlotte.

2) The city owns the land the stadium sits on, and can foreclose on the stadium if he breaks the agreement (plus fines). Bye bye Charlotte FC.

3) Charlotte FC cannot maintain that stadium alone. I can’t imagine the legal crap from MLS he’d have to deal with if that team couldn’t play in the city.

4) If the nfl setup shop in Europe, they’d be subject to Europes laws. Think safety (CTE), unions, corporate governance, contract law, employment law, etc. Keeping the EU regulators happy would change the game forever.

Plus tariffs lol. How would that work?

Lol…didn’t think of that. There is a 100% tariff on foreign movies and tv shows now right?

I don’t know. I thought the EU and US signed a deal where we pretty much cancel out most things. Which should be better for us. 
It is another piece of gum in the works though, I was just trolling Europe to be honest. 
The future of a business over there, I would be worried. They are losing their grip on their culture and it’s about blow up I think. I don’t know that I would want to be heavily invested.
