Live football game....what to expect
Time to get more Americanised and forget football and rugby as I know it. Off to Invesco Field on Sunday to watch the Broncos play the Eagles. What's in store for me (other than a truck load of Coors)?

The Eagles are our local team even though we live in NJ, the only thing on our local sports news is the flaming Eagles.
We're off to our first college football game on 12 November, Princeton v Yale. I think me and my daughter will do the tailgating and then disappear into Princeton to do some girly shopping, leaving the men to watch the match.
