July 2012 PODCAST SHOW NOTES

Thursday July 5, 2012
Show #343 -- Happy 4th of July, New NFL Blackout Policy, and more


TOPICS:

Segment #1: "New NFL Blackout Policy"

The NFL announced a new local blackout policy this week, allowing a team to set it's own percentage of a sellout at which a game will be allowed televised locally. If a team does opt to lower the required sellout percentage below 100%, it must be no lower than 85%. Plus, to discourage teams from just setting it at 85% all the time, they will be required to share more of the revenue for any tickets sold after exceeding their required percentage. Also, teams cannot set different percentages for different games. It must be the same for all games, and must be chosen before the start of the season.

Segment #2: "Will Cedric Benson Come to the Raiders?"

There has been talk of Cedric Benson possibly coming to the Raiders, especially since he hasn't been picked up by another team and he could probably be signed fairly inexpensively. Raider Greg thinks it would be a good idea in order to prevent "using up" Darren McFadden.

Segment #3: "Rest in Peace Ben Davidson"

Raiders legend Ben Davidson passed away on Tuesday of prostate cancer at the age of 72. We partied with Big Ben last year at our away game in San Diego. You can see him in our video of that party here: http://youtu.be/wzVk8V4Rrkg (at 4:32), and in this video: http://youtu.be/AqJSKuMi06E (at 1:41). Ben will be greatly missed.

Greg also pays tribute to Al Davis, as we always do on his birthday, July 4th.
