Hi SulleyP --
So you're a Cheesehead! I actually knew someone who played for the Packers a zillion years ago. He was on special teams -- his name is Cliff Lewis (he dated and cheated on a friend of mine).
I am not a big pro-football fan (but as my husband is from NY -- he supports the Giants, and I am from Seattle -- so I'll go with the Seahawks).
I did buy my husband and son tickets to see Miami play the NY Giants in the October before last at Wembley. And, it looks like I'll be at the Big Superbowl Party on the Air Base in January because I recently met an American lady married to British RAF guy and she asked me to "hook her up". Apparently, she is big pro football fan and her team is doing well.
When I lived in the States, I watched college football -- I think it is actually a better game. I graduated from Florida State University, and they take their football very seriously in the South. My son is big fan, and even wanted to play for his American High School here in the UK. I told him, maybe you could be the place kicker (he was only about 8 1/2 stone at the time).
