The Top 13 Reasons a British Super Bowl Is a Bad Idea


13> You think our stadium food is bad? Try deep-fried kidney pie
on a stick.

12> "... and he's brought down at the 36.576-meter line, just
7.62 centimeters short of a first down!"

11> Football padding openly mocked by local rugby players.

10> Halftime show will feature aging British pop stars trying
to recapture lost glory... oh, wait.

9> Freakish caricature mascots constantly being mistaken for
Prince Charles.

8> Inevitable "Mr. Bean Goes to the Super Bowl" movie cools
American-British relations to pre-War of 1812 levels.

7> Tragedy strikes in the Atlantic after Madden attempts to
drive his bus to the game.

6> When it comes to Terrell Owens, not even Neville Chamberlain
would choose appeasement.

5> The Raider Nation just isn't up to the required standards
of belligerence and unruliness for British hooliganism.

4> John Elway suddenly has the best teeth in the building.

3> England = Camilla Parker Bowles; Super Bowl = wardrobe
malfunction. If there is a God, never shall the twain
shall meet.

2> Even with the best NFL films voice, "On the sodden pitch
of Wembley Stadium" just sounds wrong.

a British Super Bowl Is a Bad Idea...


1> Do YOU want to hear John Madden boast about getting stuffed
full of spotted dick while tailgating?
