Am I crazy or are we on the verge of outsourcing American football?  Say it ain’t so.   First the blasphemy of a possible Super Bowl in London and now the Buffalo Bills are looking to schedule regular-season games in Toronto?   The Empire strikes back?

Some details:

The Buffalo Bills announced Thursday that the team hopes to expand its fan base by playing a regular season game in Toronto.

“The team hopes to capitalize on the increasing interest of fans in the Canadian market by playing a regular season game in Toronto,” the team said in a release.

The Bills may encounter roadblocks in the way of approval by county and state officials, which is required under the team’s lease on Ralph Wilson Stadium if the club wishes to play a home game at another venue.  [LINK TO STORY]

Is this a way for the Empire to smack back at the colonies for the tea party?  Or for Beckham’s bum knee?  Or maybe our dominance in preparing fish ‘n chips?  I smell a Buckingham rat.
