Jags-Dolphins Game Won't Air In Orlando
Jacksonville Jaguars Fail To Sell Game Out
POSTED: Friday, December 11, 2009
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Not even a five-game winning streak at home, an in-state opponent and playoff implications could prevent the Jacksonville Jaguars from another blackout. The Jaguars (7-5) failed to sell out Sunday's home game against Miami (6-6), prompting the team's ninth blackout (including preseason) in 2009. The game will not be televised in Jacksonville or Orlando. Local 6 WKMG-TV will instead broadcast the game featuring the New York Jets at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Jaguars believed winning would help the small-market franchise sell tickets in a tough economy, but last week's game against Houston drew the smallest announced crowd (42,079) in franchise history. Team officials are hoping to sell out next Thursday night's home finale against unbeaten Indianapolis.
