NFL Blackout Rule No More

News out of Washington, D.C. today may have given NFL fans in San Diego and Buffalo a sigh of relief.  NFL teams in those cities were the only two teams during the 2013 season to face local television blackouts of games. Yesterday, the FCC announced the repeal of sports blackout rules that were enacted nearly forty years ago. So no longer will they be able to cancel games on T.V just because of low ticket sales. Now the NFL will have the task of thinking of new ways to get fans in the seats.
