Alcibiades Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 They claim that the sticking point now is the rookie scale, specifically the number of years involved in the contracts. That shouldn't be too big a hurdle, so they are expecting to be done in time to avoid missing any preseason games, except possibly the HoF game. The teams in that game start TC a week early, but in order to get FA in, they might have to change that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoD Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 ESPN later "softened" that stance per PFT. I do think a preseason game or two is going to be missed. At least. There is going to be some bad football played this year, especially early on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dikinbaus Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Free agency and football in general couldn't come any quicker!! I want to be optimistic about our team once again and know what the team is going to do and not just guess. I want the frenzy to begin already!!

NashvilleNinja Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 I think fans just want to wash the taste of last season out of their mouths. We also want the opportunity to put the former coaching staff/regime to rest. I don't think fans have felt that sense of "we don't know what's about to happen, but we think it might be good" in a very long time. I look forward to that feeling again sometime soon.

freakingeek Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 I really don't care if they missed ALL the pre-season games. As a season ticket holder paying full price for those tickets is the biggest ripoff since someone sold oceanfront property in Arizona. If the Titans were going to be contenders I might feel differently about missing games, but they aren't and I don't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Titans were going to be contenders I might feel differently about missing games, but they aren't and I don't. I think that is why they will play all the preseason games. They get full price and would have to refund the same for each preseason game missed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted July 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 I like watching the preseason games, but I can understand why season ticket holders wouldn't like the prices. I'll miss them though, as those August games provide the sign that football is back! Plus, I like watching the rookies play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOTT Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Were I living close enough to attend games on a weekly basis(season ticket), I would be very unhappy at being forced to buy tickets to uncompetitive,unentertaining pre season games at the same price as regular season games. It's just not right in my book. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prometheus Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 I despise paying full price for preseaon games. Huge slap in face of PSL season ticket holders. Money grubbing at its worst. pro Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 That just made it easier for me to let my tickets go. Preseason games are literally 20% of the season ticket package (not counting the possibility of playoff tickets later)... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preseason games are literally 20% of the season ticket package (not counting the possibility of playoff tickets later)... They got you hooked as a PSL owner and they know it so they gouge you deep. Between my 4 seats I pay $240 per game preseason and I could walk up and buy one ticket for $5 to any preseason game. As pro said, it's money grubbing at it's worst. As a fan, I love to see the rookies in action but it's not worth the full ticket price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
