South FL local broadcast might be blacked out!

I bet you wish you were going to the game with me now.

 

Even with all those Jets fans. Thats embarrassing.

 

Dolphins home games have all been "almost" blacked out for years running. They will do what they have to do to get it on tv or they will risk being irrelevant. Its just to damn hot down here in September for 1pm games. And my 70" hd tv with the Sunday ticket is just too damn good!

 

I was at a Miami Dolphins game a few years back. The game was officially sold out, but the stands were about half empty anyway. Yeah, it was September, but the heat is no excuse when other teams' fans show up to games in FREEZING temperatures even if their teams don't stand a snowball's chance in Hell. Neat analogy, huh?

 

Good point. If people in Buffalo can make it to games in January then Phins fans should be able to go in September. 86 degrees is not exactly July in Arizona. Shorts T shirt some sunblock you're fine.

 

That’s bullshit…I went to that damn game about 7 or 8 years in a row and there is nothing more miserable than sitting in that stadium in 110 degree sun just frying.

Same thing with the Bucs games that have been blacked out for two years; outside stadiums in Florida in September are just no fun.

 

They must have a 0% excitement level for the Jets game.

 

strange, you'd think the Jets game would be the one game which got plenty of tickets sold.

 

Analogy is neat, but Buffalo and Miami are two very different places.

 

it never surprises me the nonsense that comes up . . .. It will be on TV somehow . . . .

 

It will be aired. They extended the date and met the goal

 

hell of a lot easier to drink yourself warm, than to keep cool. open stadiums in florida suck

 

Plus football games are a whole day affair, involves thousands of dollars over the course of a season...

VS

Replays/Redzone/HD/AC/cheap food/beer...

The NFL has made the at home experience much better...

This is a non story...Our crappy owner from Day 1 gauarateed there would be no blackouts...The team bought tickets to prevent the home opener from being blacked out...It's gotten that bad.

 

It'll be on, Im not worried

 

As one who regualarly go to these games I see and hear more Jet fans the Mami fans and this goes back to 06

 

It's brutal here through September. The sun is super strong and the humidity is very high.

To give you an idea of how people avoid the heat in the summer here, indoor ice skating is very popular and so is bowling.

So it's no wonder that they haven't sold out this game.

I've lived here for 7 years and for the 1st time, I spent most of a summer day outside - walking around South Beach with my wife. It was so freakin' uncomfortable! I would only go to a summer Dolphins game if they had those sprayers like they have in EPCOT and it would have to be over me the whole game.

 

There's enough Jets fans down here that it will be on the air.

 

waahhhh........ it's hot. NO SHIT, it freakin FLORIDA!
It's like bitchin it's cold in Green Bay. personally I'd rather sweat than get frostbite.....


Try working outside in this shit in the middle of summer.

 

Watching a game at sunlife stadium in September is miserable!! Sweating your ass off!!! The Marlins finally realized this and now have a Dome..
