Basketball vests along with American Football apparel are pretty popular in certain cultural circles. As someone who plays, I already have a Collage team and an NFL team I could 'wear' though so wouldn't be likely to buy a Brighton one, especially at 95 quid!

Spurs are turning themselves into a weird kind of EFL / NFL hybrid franchise. How long before they get a permanent NFL club housed at their ground ? The Black Chicken Raiders, or somesuch.

Frankly there's far worse merchandise out there.

Looking at that, would I be correct in thinking our shop is so dark, in order to stop people seeing what they're buying?

The London Spurs. Absolutely nailed on.

All of this NFL promo with Kane, the new stadium even being built with the NFL in mind. They're not doing that for 2 games a season are they?

Exactly.

They've installed a hydraulic pitch, with touchlines that rise and fall 6ft according to which sport is being played - they've not done that for 2 games a year, have they.

I just really, REALLY hope one day someone accidentally pushes the wrong button during a Spurs match, the pitch opens up, and Toby Alderweireld is swallowed up in the gap and falls 6ft down onto the 20 yard line.

Why would they call themselves that and thereby immediately alienating the Arsenal / West Ham / Chelsea NFL fans? Hypothetically, it would as much as I could bear to watch a London NFL franchise play at a rebuilt Selhurst, but cheering on 'London Palace' would be too much to ask.

Who Chokes the most NFL semi finals (or what ever they are) we will have them.

It will be the Jacksonville team I imagine, I am sure they will just relaunch the monarchs sadly, I do prefer the London Chickens however.

Possibly because The London Cocks sounds even worse cockerel, is too big a mouthful.

I look forward to the London Cocks taking on the Boston Pancakes and the Cleveland Steamers.

On a serious note - Europe Roosters it is then.

I've seen one with exactly the same front design but "unless Spurs are at home" on the back.

Has anyone at any stage pointed out just how ****ing boring NFL is?

I know that's not directly relevant, but feel it needed asking.
