daft Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 5 hours ago, sne said: Might as well make it SKY-6 + Newcastle against the rest of us plebs. Play it 4 quarters with extra commercial breaks and a skills competition ahead of the game and Bruno Mars featuring Cardi B shooting ping-pong balls out of her t*** at HT. This is legit a better suggestion than the actual one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 What even would an all-star weekend in the PL look like? A tactics-off? Maybe a beep test contest? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Boehly has been on the scene for 5 weeks. Needs to STFU and earn his place in the conversation by absorbing the culture quietly over time. His arrogance is concerning because he will use his power to pursue all kinds of tacky things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a beep test contest? said before imagine like FIFA game pre game mini games or taking stuff like soccer am do for you know the drill its the best bit of the pro bowl, hard to post videos because the NFL owns them all it humanises the players, loads of content and interviews, fun competitions, they play dodgeball for example, loads of fan interaction and open sessions, basically just a week of the superstar players enjoying their sport and its very casual and fun to watch but the game is then **** terrible 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhavenhibby Posted September 15, 2022 Visiting Supporter Share Posted September 15, 2022 Love the NFL but their set ups and methods should be kept for the States............certainly not for the Premier League. Agree about the pro bowl, it is more about an end of season show rather than a decent game which is understandable as no one wants to get badly hurt and the playbook has to be limited as the players obviously haven't played together all season in the main.

If someone other than an american had suggested it I'm not sure it would have been labelled as an americanism. Super cups and charity shields and exhibition games have been happening for ages. I remember watching a europe vs rest of the world game when I was younger with current players and it was **** brilliant. That's all this would be (I would hope). One player from each team plus a few extra to make up the numbers. I think it would be quite cool But again I'd only want it to be for chairty. If it's just a money spinner then meh Well I think when an American says that the PL could take inspiration from American football and look to set up an ‘All Star’ game it kinda smacks of Americanism. I don’t think you get more American than an ‘all star’ game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Graham Potter had suggested a similar exhibition game I don't think people would have jumped on it being an american idea. But because an american has everyone is saying "errrr it's american!
