I think that the league should do some research and figure out the attendance average of the 32 teams in the NFL and go by that standard, i know that people say if the games dont get blacked out then people will stay home,
but i think it is more about the product on the feild and the fact that Ralph Wilson stadium even after being downsized 7-8 years ago still holds almost 73,000 down from 80,000 and when a game doesnt sell out we usually miss by 3-5,000 tickets, well that is still around 70,000 people at the game and that is still 10,000 more people then all the dome stadiums and alot of others,
If they went with a league average of say 65,000 tickets sold and black out is lifted this would give the Bills and other so called small market teams a chance to be veiwed as far as Syracuse and up into Canada and down in PENN.
Did u know that we seat like 10,000 more than Dallas no wonder these teams never have to worry about sellin out Population is way higher there and stadium is alot less capacity, something needs to be done about this rule there are plenty of people who cant afford to go to a game but would glady buy NFL merchandise and go support there local bars/restraunts to go watch the game every week it is a win win and way you loof at it, Plus if the Bills put a more consistent wininning product on the feild u dont have to worry about it ala Sabres
