American Football Arrives in Egypt

[SteelerEmpire]

I also heard the NFL is re-initiating it's efforts to go big in China ?? Anyway:

Cairo, Egypt (CNN)It's an opportunity most people can only dream of -- being trained by stars from the National Football League.

That's especially true when former Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is the man teaching you how to go into "Beast Mode."

Charles i never been to an AFL game. I cant afford to fly halfway around the world to Sydney and watch a game. I gotta watch it on ESPN.  Thats why i like for Baltimore stadium authority to invite the Aussie game to M&T Bank so i can see what the game is like watching from the stands

That I understand, but in no way did your previous post lead me to that conclusion

I think he's trying to say, The masses of Egyptians have not experienced American football. 

 

It it will take a while for them to fully comprehend how the game is played i.e. Penalties, proper technique, play calling, coaching philosiphies, movements, formations. 

 

They will eventually grasp it. I think someone has very little faith in them which is quite sad.
