Friday, November 02, 2007 Raiders Nation In past years, the Raiders' inability to sell out games has been a source of frustration to many local football fans. After all, according to NFL rules, if the game doesn't sell out 72 hours in advance, it will be blacked out in the local market and not aired on TV. Therefore, I was a little surprised when Joe started cheering "YES! YES! The Raiders game didn't sell out!" It turns out that if the hapless Raiders had sold out their Sunday game vs. the Texans -- both teams are at the bottom of their respective divisions -- local fans wouldn't have had the chance to see the undefeated Patriots take on the undefeated Colts. So, congratulations, Bay Area football fans! You won't be able to watch your local team play on Sunday -- and you couldn't be happier about it! posted by 125records @ 11:51 AM   0 Comments: Post a Comment << Home   About Me Name: Sue Home: San Francisco Bay Area, California, United States About Me: See my complete profile Previous Post Drawer built for a giant Boo Think before you toss See the movie, don't read the reviews Soft market = opportunity!
