So let me ask this question; Do the blackouts REALLY affect ticket sales?
A person like myself who doesn't really care one way or the other isn't going to buy a ticket anyway. I will sit down and watch them on the tube if we are out somewhere and it's on but refuse to further the wants and needs of people playing a game and DEMANDING everything under the sun.
I have been to two games but both times it was as a result of a vendor providing the seats. Personally the only people I can see being "punished" by a blackout is the casual observer.
That's pretty much right on.
I disagree. Many people enjoy watching the games, but can't necessarily make the trip for any number of reasons.
It could be that someone can't afford the costs associated with attending in person. It could be that a person has a medical disability that prevents them from attending and enjoying a game. Some people actually have to work on Sunday game days. There are so many more examples, but you see the point.
