NFL.com to broadcast blacked out games

First, thank you to indianajagsfan for making the fanpost. I knew there was something I needed to post on here and kept forgetting what.

NFL.com will be rebroadcasting all of the blacked out games for local markets this season. In my opinion, this is a fair compromise for the NFL to help fans of teams. The short and quick of it is the feature will be free and games will be available starting midnight of gameday. They will be available for 72 hours after game day (really 69 hours when you factor in the blackout during Monday Night Football.) The service is an extension of the NFL Game Rewind feature, but as I said, it is free.

this shouldnt be the way to watch the games.......

this just gave another couple hundred or thousand fans reasons to stay home and not buy tickets. have a nice time watching the games on your computer……save some of the screenshots and put them somewhere safe. it may be the last time you see a jacksonville jaguar.

i didnt say it WAS, MATT....

but this is MY team and in MY city. I have a problem with this so IM gonna voice MY opinion. some of the people who were about to buy tickets just said “I can just sit home and watch”. I wont have a problem when THEY buy enough tickets to lift the blackout in MY city. anything else?
