He gets less than what he paid for.

He didn't.  He paid for the right to purchase the team's season ticket package.  In 2016, that package is 9 games (2 preseason, 7 regular season).

If we go by yours and his logic, the Bengals have the right to increase license costs if and when the NFL expands the regular season to 18 games.  Somehow I don't think that would be well received by the STH masses.

It will be a non issue for me very soon when I drop/sell my seat license and my season tickets.

As I stated, it is no big deal to the team, they could care less about fans and prove it all the time.

I enjoyed helping us have a home field advantage, but it is obvious you and others don't feel losing a home game and advantage is a big deal. I do hope you are correct going to London is a good thing and win in London and make the playoffs in 2016.

I will just pass buying season tickets the rest of my days.

I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

It's not that we discount the loss of a home game. I think it's more a case of us STHs feeling that there's not much we can do about it. What I can't understand is your overreaction. It's one game, man, both you and the team will survive. Spend the money you would have spent on tickets on extra beer. Personally, if we're losing a game at some point anyway, then I'm fine with it being the who-gives-a-**** Washingtonm team we miss out on seeing.

It makes no sense to take a home game from either team, schedule them both as away games......that keeps everyone happy.

Sorry, that won't work.  If you want all 32 teams to have 8 games in their home stadiums (32 x 8 = 256), and 3 games are played in London, how do you get 256 actual home games out of the remaining 253 games?
