      I don't go to any of them if I did I would miss the Browns games on gamepass

      The reason is money. London hosts soccer European final games for the same reason. Sports events here earn a lot of money that's all it is.

            Would they sell 90k 3-4 times a year for 5+ years at those prices? I don't know at all I'm just curious. And London is accessible by most of Europe within three hours.

              i'm not sure but Mexico City may have more people than Europe combined,that joke aside ya I believe they could well sell out,price wise I have no idea unless you are a drug dealer or a cop not a shit ton of money for the locals

                  Plus the time zone thing too, nice to have the games Sunday 1 and 4 pm. Mexico City has been chatted about for decades now, would be a good idea.

                  GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

                    There's a weekly NFL show on the BBC here and they just straight up laughed about the Browns for a good 30 seconds. Nobody on the panel even said anything else.

                    This sucks.

                              I can hardly wait for the GEICO fence barrier commercials. "Hey let's just build a wall around 'em. It's what we do"

                              I can go to any construction site even within a mile of my house on a bicycle and listen to music from the "home" country play while they put together new houses. In fact I'm thinking I will spend several of their lunch breaks riding over there to practice my Spanish before going to Akumal in the Yucatan in mid-Jan. They are pretty friendly when I use their own language once they realize I'm not turning them in.

                                  In terms of a permanent team in Mexico City, there could be major issues with that: Exchange rates, living costs. (any NFL player there could likely require gated and guarded housing) etc.

                                  A once/twice a year game may be OK....but permanent. Don't think so.

                                        From an article published April 2016:

                                        Kidnappings Continue

                                        The organization Stop Kidnapping reported 155 kidnappings during February nationwide, with a total of 201 victims. Only 111 of those cases were the subject of a preliminary investigation.

                                        SEE ALSO: Coverage of Kidnapping

                                        The organization's president, Isabel Wallace, expressed concern both for the lack of progress combating kidnapping this year and for the lack of preliminary investigations of cases.

                                        At a meeting on the issue, SNSP officials indicated they are preparing legal reforms to oversee the registration of crimes at the state level.

                                        "If the authorities still do not open preliminary investigations or open files on investigations despite having knowledge of a kidnapping, they not only incur administrative and/or criminal liability, but are oblivious to the reality of our country on the subject kidnapping," Wallace said.

                                          201 people kidnapped in one month? How many of these people were gotten back? How many killed?

                                          Looks like anyone with any kind of decent wealth would have their families be targets.

                                          I say, even if the NFL thought about a team down there, the players association would say: Fuck that....we ain't getting our players wives and kids kidnapped.
