    Excellent news - with the reduction in time between first-round picks it should move a bit more quickly as well.

    Wow it seems as if American Football is really catching on in the UK.....

    BTW I may have an oppurtunity to go to the Chargers/Saints game at Wembley. Pretty excited about that, just wouldn't be looking foward to the 10 hour flight from San Diego :)

    Actually, it was really big in the 80s, then died down quite a bit. Now there is a solid fanbase, but nothing like it was in the 80s, when there were a lot of bandwagon-jumpers.

    The coverage is going to be awful. First round and maybe part of the second. Nothing on Sunday. Nightmare. Just hope I have the internet back on at home for then, but I doubt it. :sad:

    NASN had it on last year, and it was OK, except for the long waits between picks which is now gone :up:

    It was 2 years ago that NASN had it, I'm sure. Sky had the rights last year and didn't show it.

    Perhaps I'm remembering wrongly though.
