The Minnesota Twins being a dumpster fire has really made me tune out of baseball. Watching a sport that your favorite team is ass at can be a difficult pill to swallow. Hell, watching baseball in general can be hell most of the time. Unless if you’re getting drunk and having fun. However, the sports movie lover in me was intrigued by the Field of Dreams concept game that happened between the Yanks and White Sox. The two teams Twins fans are supposed to hate the most, and yet that was the most electric and unique game of any sort that I’ve watched.

So now we look at the NFL, the king of the major four sports. And the most they’ve done is games across the pond and Mexico. That’s cool and all, but I think we’re all looking for a little more than that. Something cooler that will make the non-NFL fans give it a look if those people even exist. Here are a few ideas I have for Roger The Great to spice up the game aesthetically.

Let’s Go Back To College

Imagine being a pro in the NFL and dominating the college scene, only to come back to your old stomping grounds as a pro and do it again. Wisconsin and Notre Dame are doing the reverse idea of this with a game at Soldier Field in September and at Lambeau in 2026. The idea of an NFL game at TCF Banks stadium and yes I am calling it that still, would be quite dope. Another one to really appeal to the masses and not just our Minnesota-made brains is The Big House. Maybe not as much, considering geographically it would include the Lions. Still fun in theory.
Anyone who watches sports knows the NFL is the top dog. But aesthetically, they don’t have to do too much and it’s boring. I’m not asking for you to turn the sport into an IRL version of NFL Street, Roger. Let’s fuck around and have a game at Wrigley Field and make the bit fun!
