Sperm Edwards Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 NFL dropping T.V. blackouts for 2015 season The Wall Street Journal reports the league will no longer black out non-sold out games on local television for the 2015 season. Per reporter Kevin Clark, the league will "evaluate how it goes after the season," but it's hard to see this policy coming back. It's been under fire for years — including from Richard Nixon — and was under attack in Congress as recently as December. It's an outdated policy for a game driven by television ratings.

joewilly12 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 The Jets have no worries free agency and the draft will fill seats and lure out the fans once again who got sick and tired of Rex Ryan,John Idzik and losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet9 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 That rule never made any sense anyway. Either from the FCC or the NFL. The Chicago Blackhawks did that for years right before they got Toews and Kane and got good again. The only way you'd know how the Hawks did one night was to either go or read about it in the paper. Such ass backwards thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Your turn, MLB. Ridiculous that if the Rangers come on MLB Network, I can't watch it because I live a short six hour drive from Arlington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 There's always the Astros. They're blacked out, too. Makes more sense at least, as I'm about an hour and a half from there, even if I live in a different state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
