Jaguars owner: No home games in London in 2010

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jacksonville Jaguars owner Wayne Weaver says his team will not play any home games in London in 2010.

The Jaguars, who blacked out nine of 10 home games this season, are considered a prime candidate to play at least one game overseas. But Weaver insists the small-market franchise won’t move any home dates to England next season.

Jacksonville had seven of the league’s 20 blackouts during the regular season, which Weaver says embarrasses him around other owners. But he says the team isn’t for sale and isn’t moving anywhere. He says the team’s ticket woes can be fixed with more work and with an improved economy.

He says his franchise has to “work harder than everybody else” to fill the stadium.
