I don't know about that.... I find Simms always have something good to say about the Pats.

Nantz is a douche, I agree.

Stupid Raiders and the "85% capacity gets the blackout lifted" rule this year. Thought this was a sure-fire weekend to see the Pats.

Regards,

Chris, Is the blackout lift official? I live in Sacramento and like you was thinking there was no way the Jags were going to get the game on local. Since there's only 2 games at this time, I'm assuming the redzone will show plenty of Pats/Jets.

I could not find official information on the blackout being lifted, but assume it will be. 85% is a threshold the Raiders should be able to meet for every game, even the Jags.

Update: Received a one-day extension to reach the threshold (boo!)

I know I will here in NY.

CBS will have the game in my area

I'll be in Williamsburg VA this weekend with the kids for an Irish dance competition,
so I'm glad to be able to DVR the game, because we likely won't be back in Hershey
til late Sunday night. I've already told friends & family up in Boston not to contact me
until I contact them first. It's blackout time, again.

Pats play the Rexs and the Raiders play the Jags.... With there being a Thursday night game and 6 times having a bye this week, there are very few games this weekend.

Roger Godell needs to revisit the scheduling, it sucks so far this year

Fox moved all of their games to 1PM in order to televise baseball at 4:30,

which won't even happen if the Cardinals win tonight

Hopefully we'll all be watching CBS switch over to the Jags Raiders by 6:30 after the Pats have built an 80 point lead going into the 4th Qu.
