The NFL ought to put two teams in London

Both sharing Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The time difference between New York City and London is five hours during the season, one hour more than Cal had to play Pitt yesterday. Put the two teams in the same division with New England and the two New York teams. A five-team division. Divisional opponents play each other twice anyway. Fast Planes and G-Men play in the same stadium already, just like the London "Lions" and the England "Royals" will. Flight time NYC to London, 7 hrs 10 mins; Boston-London,  6 hrs 40 mins; NYC-LA, 6 hrs 5 mins. 🤷‍♂️ It'd be easy, incredibly lucrative, and would make the NFL the first international sports league.
