Guess Who's Back?

I really think that the blackouts in 09 have little to do with how good fans are of the jaguars and just about everything to do about the economy and the drubbing the city gets from the media. Jacksonville is a Jaguars city, there is no doubt about it. There were 22 blackouts in the NFL this year and none of them were in Jacksonville. People have to remember that no matter how bad blackout issues are in J-ville, there were teams with far worse issues than us. Oakland, this year against San Diego, had its first game shown on local TV for the first time in two years. St. Louis and Detroit have also been struggling with avoiding blackouts. The only reason Tampa Bay isn't plagued by blackouts is because the owner buys up the 10,000-15,000 season tickets that aren't sold.

The national media is selective in its NFL coverage. It is clear the national media doesn't like Jacksonville, this is not a conspiracy but a fact. They don't like small markets. The national media is pissed that they can't bathe in the sun in LA during NFL season with a team in a city like Jacksonville. While they rake us over the coals for not "supporting" the Jaguars, they excuse Tampa and St. Louis because of the economy. I'm sorry but the economy has hit every NFL city.

You must be thinking about the 09' season; In 2010, Tampa was the only NFL franchise to have all of it's games blacked out.
