According to the "London Calling" article, it is speculated that a team from the NFL will end up playing in London. This article leaves us with a lot to talk about and definitely decisions to be made before making this huge change in the league. Although this change can be a good thing, from the article I could find many cons of why this would not be such a good idea. As a student athlete I can relate with the toll that traveling can take on people and most importantly athletes. It is not only about spending hours on a plane being uncomfortable, but the fact that the other team is going to have the advantage is what NFL commisionaires need to understand. Whether it was the team that traveled to London or vice versa their ability to perform well is going to be affected. I think that, yes this is new revenue and this is globalizing American Football, but in making these decisions there should be more of a concern for the players and whether or not their performance is going to make the league better or not.
