Looking for American Football fans

[DCExpat39]

Hi,
We are American expats living in Gauteng, and we are both rabid football (the real kind) fans. It is one of the only things that keeps us going living in this hellhole. I am a Redskins fan and my fiancee is an Eagles fan. We have ADSL and have purchased the streaming feed for all games. Additionally, we watch all games shown on ESPN International on DSTV. They rebroadcast the ESPN games the next day (usually around 4PM ) and if we can get a few people together who will buy some beers, we can convince the barman at our local pub to turn off the stupid cricket and soccer and put the game on the big screen.

If there are any American Football fans in the Santon/Joburg area who would be interested in getting together to watch the Sunday night game on Monday or the Monday night game on Tuesday, please let us know. There is strength in numbers, and the more the merrier! We are both very knowledgeable, and have even gotten a few South African rugby fans interested in the game, once we explained the rules.

I am an American in the Fourways area. I hate the 'Skins and Eagles but would love to join you!

>rabid football (the real kind) fans

... you mean the kind where they run around with the ball in their hands and stop to rest every 3 metres?
