No true thread for some of this stuff, so I guess anything from the results of winter meetings, maybe coaching moves since they're not really 'players' (player moves/rumors thread) etc could go here.

Found this minorly interesting this morning-
Associated Press

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to announce plans tomorrow for the Buffalo Bills to play an annual regular-season game in Toronto, starting this year.
The announcement, to come in Goodell's state-of-the-league address during Super Bowl festivities in Glendale, Ariz., would make the Bills the first team to play annual regular-season games outside the United States.

The Bills proposed the plan at the NFL owners' meetings in October as part of their desire to expand their market to Toronto, which is about a 90-minute drive from Buffalo.

Under the team's proposal, the Bills would play some preseason games and one annual regular-season game at the downtown Rogers Centre - a domed stadium with a retractable roof - through 2012.

There's been on and off talk of the Jags being moved to Toronto, partially because Jacksonville isn't that great of an NFL city.

Yeah, I heard they call Toronto the "Texas North of the Border"
