The U.S. franchise owners are dead set against that. The last thing they want is to play games while most American sports fans are jazzed about the beginning of the NFL season and the climax of the MLB season.
As it is, American teams generally ask to play as many road games as possible in October, because that's when they draw the worst crowds and the lowest TV ratings. September is right out.
