    I saw some fans at Wembley last year dressed up as actual friggin Cows! Can't wait to see our transcontinental Jets bretheren. Hopefully, there are a few Man City Jets fans over there!

    There is one thing that sticks out this pre-season. At least one team, the Giants has lowered ticket costs for pre-season games which has long been a point of contention of fans vs. management. http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/new-york-giants-lower-ticket-prices-preseason-games-031715 About 50%. But it's still part of a package for season ticket holders. You have to buy the pre-season games. And they raised the prices of regular season games: after a season when they didn't make the playoffs again. So after increases and decreases the bottom line is: you save 12 bucks.

    I could figure it out what it meant but I still don't understand and this is no offense to our European posters on here but we don't call schedules "fixtures".

    I didn't think he was calling the schedule a fixture I thought he was calling certain teams we play every year fixtures in our annual preseason schedule like NYG and PHI. But maybe I'm wrong

    That's originally what I thought--they are the standard preseason games--the "fixtures" as it were.

    But apparently the UK or European soccer leagues call schedules "fixtures".

    Kind of like the bubbler, the boot, the lift, bobby etc.
