I could see the small market teams like Cinn, Jack and Buff having a tough time making money. Buff is already trying to move to Toronto.

Especially Jacksonville, they can't draw flies even with an up and coming team in their midst.

They are def losing money. If you watch one of their homes games they put a big black cover over 20,000 unsold seats. They put the cover over it so it looks like there are no empty seats. I remember hearing a story on ESPN about it.

There are a few other teams that have seating sections and say there sold out when there not,the seats are just to exspensive and people won't spend the money to go.
