The NFL Sunday Ticket verdict, against the NFL now on appeal and possibly all the way to the US Supreme Court, stands as a far bigger financial potential loss to the NFL than reported. The NFL could be out well over US $14 billion before even interest, costs, and legal fees over NINE years of litigation.
It’s a heavy antitrust climate now in the US at long last, but as this is the mighty NFL, who knows.
Many fans like me well know we are not paying hundreds per year for such a product, which is now with the heavy delay on streaming such that it is inferior.
Now offer US-based fans the chance to pick one Sunday game every week via different offerors in various cities, when for example I am not watching the Eagles if they play on Sunday, then I am game.
That missing reality right there is one of the core points of the case. There is no such option via this package, and the NFL even refused such an option via ESPN at one point, which is essentially all-or-nothing from merely ONE offeror, since the 2023 season Google’s YouTube TV with a 30 to 50 second lag to live action!
