It's early, but I find this remarkable that a winning, exciting and getting better NFL team may not sell out one of only 8 home games. Sign of the times I guess.

Has that area been hit hard by the recession? I ask because it's been a few years since I've visited the "Nati" but I've read cities in Ohio have been really hurt.

love, we darn near won the Superbowl and have had a few blackout threats this season..

I have always wondered how much commercial revenue they make off of a regular season game. Several million in commercials would justify someone in the NFL to purchase the remaining seats, no?
