Now after getting that off my chest I will give my personal thoughts on this venture.

NFL, if it comes to Ireland/UK - count me there with bells on, I'm saving already as soon as I heard the news of the possability.
If its the Skins even better, but the chance to see an NFL regular season game without having the travel/hotel costs seems very appealing to me, regardless of if its the Cowboys vs Browns I'll still be going and I'm sure almost each and every NFL fan in the UK would feel the same way (meaning there will be FAR more demand for tickets than could be available).
Even casual fans or people without much knowledge of the sport may be interested as it'll be a once in a decade event possibly and so it will also draw people that way, the interest drawn via media and people talking about it long after will also go a long way to boosting the sport.
