In week 4 of the 1976 NFL season, the New England Patriots played the Oakland Raiders. And initially, the game was blacked out on NBC in the Boston area, because the game did not sell out. However, this blackout was so controversial due to the manner in which it happened, and due to just how deceptive the Patriots were being in order to prevent the game from being shown on TV, that it sparked an outrage, and even led Congress to bringing the issue up. This is the story behind the 1976 Patriots and the bizarre broadcasting controversy

A joke that I heard growing up in the region is if you called the Patriots ticket office during this era and asked what time the game started, they'd ask "What time can you get here?"

@@OfficialJaguarGator9 Awesome!! Hey, I got an idea for you. The play that changed the way the challenge system works. 99 divisional playoffs between the Titans and Colts. Jeff Fisher was trying frantically to challenge a play using the "buzzer", but his buzzer failed, and he didn't have his "back up" red flag on him, so he had to use a timeout to stop play, then issue the challenge. He lost the timeout he called, but he did win the challenge.

@jasonllerena5526 Год назад

Steve Grogan was a really good QB. Very mobile. He became the starter after Jim Plunkett was traded to the 49ers. Jim Plunkett unfortunately wasn't a mobile QB and literally took a beating because of his poor offensive line. I'm a diehard Raiders fan and finally when Plunkett got to the Raiders he was able to play for a good team and win 2 Super Bowl titles. Go Raiders!

@alspencer3826 10 месяцев назад

Grogan had a great arm and he could really throw that ball. He played the qb position like a linebacker, total disregard for his body. Unfortunately, he made some of the worst decisions that you would ever see a qb make. He also threw a boatload of picks every year, some games he'd be superb, other games he would look like it was his first time ever playing quarterback. In 1980, the Pats finished one game shy of making the playoffs. That year they played a bad 49ers teams in San Fran, and Grogan proceeded to throw six picks. To this day, I have never seen a qb throw six int's in a game. When all is said and done, I gotta tip my hat to the guy, because he layed it all on the line. He had great speed, and a cannon for a arm, I just wish he made some better decision making. I miss the Pat Patriot logo, I miss the red uni's, and I definitely miss Grogan throwing the long bomb to Stanley Morgan! God, how I wish I could go back....oh well.

@RicoBurghFan Год назад

God I'm so glad the blackout rule has been consigned to the dustbin of history. It was so patently absurd and consistently led to crap like this, as if televising a home team's game wasn't promoting the sport and good will. I remember when I was a kid in 1972 when the previously lowly Steelers had made the playoffs vs the Raiders in what would become the Immaculate Reception game, it was blacked out in my area even though we were 40 miles from Pittsburgh. We had to go to my uncle's house like 50 miles away to watch the game . Just dumb, dumb stuff from the NFL who thankfully got better promotion people eventually.

@mrmoose6619 Год назад

Near the end of the video, JG9 mentions "the letter of the law vs. the spirit of the law"... a reseller of a Jacksonville Jaguars ticket can also attest to this concept in 1998... JG9 did a video about this.

Wow I clearly remember this season. Thank you for posting this video. In an earlier video you explained that due to the NFL never wanting to play on Christmas Day, they moved this season up a week. The Super Bowl took place on Jan 9, 1977 at the Rose Bowl, just 8 days after the college Rose Bowl. This was the only game the Raiders lost in 1976. The Raiders got revenge in the Playoffs and you did a video on that too. I love this channel and I wish you great success.

There's a whole generation or two of Patriots fans who don't know that this was one of the biggest joke franchises in the NFL in terms of ownership. It's literally sheer dumb luck that the team had a couple periods of relevancy/success under the Sullivans. Again, congrats on the graduation and the new direction for you on YT.

@crowtservo Год назад

As a kid, I felt bad for the Patriots. I remember the year they finished 1-15. They seemed like such a lost cause. They got demolished in their one Super Bowl appearance, they were usually losers on the field, I didn’t know anyone who said they were Patriots fans and I didn’t even know where they played. The Pittsburgh Steelers were in Pittsburgh, PA. The Minnesota Vikings were somewhere in the state of Minnesota. But New England? It seemed like no city or state wanted to claim them.

This is very similar to what happened in the first season of the Premier League in 1993 when the Everton-Wimbledon match only drew 3,036 (which to this day is the smallest crowd to ever see a Premier League game). The main reason why the crowd was so small was because Wimbledon supporters were boycotting the team due to the owner moving the team's home stadium from Plough Lane (where the majority of the team's fans were) to Selhurst Park a full 30 minutes away (even longer considering London traffic). This move was done because Plough Lane was not up to Premier League standards & the team couldn't afford to renovate the stadium. However because the crowd was so small, Sky Sports refused to televise the match meaning the only way people could watch this match was through highlights on BBC's Match of the Day which aired at 11:30 at night a full 3 hours after the game had concluded. The outrage from this was so overwhelming that the UK Parliament basically told Sky to air every Premier League game from now on, regardless of how big or small the crowd was, otherwise the government would allow rival ITV along with the BBC to air matches & ending Sky's monopoly (at the time) of broadcasting Premier League matches. Sky basically complied & broadcast the majority of Premier League matches since, though they shared the rights with ITV in the early 2000's & currently with BT Sport & Amazon.

@dougclark7077 Год назад

@@JesusTapdancingChristOnaCross I remember that vividly. The Patriots were 15-0 and playing the Giants in the season finale on a Saturday night. The game was supposed to be an NFL Network exclusive. However there was such an outcry that this game was not going to be seen by a large percentage of fans nationwide (NFL Network was not available in many homes) that pressure was put on to have this game shown on broadcast TV. A group of Senators contacted the NFL and threatened to re-examine the league's anti-trust status. The league relented and two broadcast networks were able to televise the game -- NBC because of the Sunday night package, and CBS because the Patriots were the visiting team and from the AFC. Despite the fact that Saturday night is traditionally the least watched TV night of the week, this game drew some of the largest ratings of any regular season games in over a decade.
