NFL PRE SEASON

I've seen a bunch of clips from stadiums during a bunch of games so far this season. Doesn't seem to be many people in the stands except for Green Bay. Pre season game tickets you'd think would be some what plentiful and season ticket owners usually dump them pretty cheap to help off set the cost of the real tickets. You'd think these stadiums would be pretty packed as regular season game tickets are pricey and some what hard to come by. Hope this is a sign of things to come.

    I hope it is. id like to see the dollars dry up in professional sports. government would probably use tax dollars to bail them out tho.

    We are coming to Lambeau Field in October for the Packers/Saints game.



    I would love to see that game as well. The Saints are my favorite team. I know that my brother will have tickets to that game, avid Packer nut. I'm not sure if he would ask me to go. I've been to the last 2 Saints games that they played here. What are your travel plans ?????

    Six of us are coming up on Friday to visit with some of our former neighbors who live about an hour from Lambeau on a lake (cannot recall the name of the lake right now).
    We are going to drive over to the game on Sunday and then head home on Monday




    You have to drive right by house (4 blocks from the freeway) maybe we could hook up for lunch or something. Got an Applebee's 3 blocks from the freeway.

    I always like meeting GB members. When we get closer to the trip I will have a better idea of our agenda and maybe we can meet up.





    Sounds good.

    If you are dumb enough to pay what a ticket costs to a football game.......well.......anything is possible.

    I fail to understand how anyone can support a bunch of fools who play kiddie games and REFUSE TO STAND AND HONOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

    The beginning of another Nascar like sports decline.

    By sitting during pre-season, I now know witch teams to NOT watch. Hope the owners get the hint and bench and/or release those overpaid fools back to the hood to make a living on the street corner.

    Jerry Jones has it right, you don't respect the USA, you don't play.

    My team the Arizona Cardinals DO NOT sit at ANY anthem and I witness first hand (been there)that before games they honor our troops at EVERY home game with tickets, MEET AND GREET players, ect. They SUPPORT our troops in a big way,,,just sayin.

    If these overpaid and ungreatfull "people" continue their uncivilized and disrespectful actions football will be a thing of the past for me and I've been a fan for 40+ years.

    I haven't watched a professional game of anything in many years with the one exception of when Peyton Manning was playing with the Colts and Broncs.

    Whites will never be able to compete with blacks in any game that involves stealing the ball.

    Would rather have a root canal than pay one cent to the NFL/AFL. Also the sports channels. This isn't a new thought.

    After years of working college football games I'd prefer to watch it on TV. Yeah you don't get the ruckus energy, but you actually get to see the game on TV.

    I do 4-5 Wisconsin Badgers games a year. The experience there is better then any NFL game. The Packers- Saints game at Lambeau would be the only NFL game I might spend money on to see.
