8/1/2014 Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Patti Ward Milford, PA nodoubt33@hotmail.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Ian Lee San Francisco, CA toto@yopmail.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Carlee Hampton Cleveland, OH hamptonfoolz@hotmail.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Michael Murphy Warrenville, IL franswa72@sbcglobal.net

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Mike Caruso Bradford, PA stbona@yahoo.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, donna johnson West Point, KY liv4thylord@aol.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Bob Mayo Ludlow, MA nicandrearose@hotmail.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Mary Gilbert Des Plaines, IL dbzplayer44@hotmail.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV.

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, Andrew Vorwerk Dassel, MN avorwerk@gmail.com

Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary 445 12th Street, SW Room TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Dear FCC Commissioners: Re: MB Docket No. 12-3 I write as a football fan to strongly urge you to maintain the FCC’s current broadcast rules now under review. The Sports Blackout Rule has been in place for decades and keeps NFL games on free, over-the-air TV. The NFL, my local community and fans like me all win when home games are sold out. Under the current system, I have access to all of my local team’s games on free TV. I object to the cable and satellite company lobbyists who are trying to change the rules in order to charge exorbitant fees for football games that I can watch right now for free on local television. The current system works – over 99 percent of NFL games were available on local broadcast TV in 2013. Let’s keep the current rules and keep the NFL on free, over-the-air TV. Sincerely, sheial findley De Kalb, TX kansascitychiefs101@yahoo.com
