    It's a start. Games played in stadiums that have been funded with public money shouldn't be blacked out.

      Will be interesting to see how much affect it has on ticket sales, not that those really mean anything anymore.

        Should've ended as soon as NFL Sunday Ticket was invented.

          The Bills stadium will empty in late Jan when we're playing for the AFC crown.

            I heard that season ticket sales this year could set a team record.

              AFC Crown?

              Season tix owners will show up in December or pass the tix on. Cooking food and getting smashed in the parking lots remains an allure - but forget that, if the new stadium crowd gets their way to have others pay for their yucks. The current rise in intolerance by the chosen monied continues. Our "professionals" lead that charge.

              I think the CIN owner already anticipated his market. He's slashed tix prices for the hoi polloi seats.

                  You should ban yourself for making such a ridiculously stupid post.

                    I don't recall to be honest, but it's my understanding that season ticket sales are doing well. I can't find any info on current sales or projections, but it wouldn't be surprising considering everything.

                        True dat

                        I was just talking to a ticket rep Friday on behalf of a couple friends about joining us in the Kelly Club. Those seats are even tough to find. The regular seats are flying and the record of 57,000 plus season tix may actually be threatened.

                        Rex and all the additions has the ticket office very busy, I've been told.

                          In other news, Jaguars fans will be seeing their first home game on TV ever.

                              Only because we'll be playing in Denver.
