NFL loses Sunday Ticket Lawsuit

https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-loses-s...225928049.html



NFL loses 'Sunday Ticket' trial, ordered to pay $4 billion by federal jury
With antitrust law, the damages could increase to $12 billion


The NFL has been ordered to pay $4.7 billion in residential class damages and $96 million in commercial class damages by a federal jury in a class action lawsuit filed against the league by subscribers to "NFL Sunday Ticket." The verdict was first reported by journalist Meghann Cuniff.

The lawsuit argued that the NFL, its teams and its network partners (DirecTV, CBS, ESPN and Fox) violated antitrust rules by working together to limit competition and sell the out-of-market TV package at an inflated price.

It will be interesting to see how appeal court handles it. Hopefully this is a first crack that will force NFL owners to reconsider how they distribute the games.

NFL owners need to realize us fans are the ones that are their #1 clients. Just saying!!

Good. Greedy bastards. I subscribed to NFL Ticket when we moved from MD years ago but wasn’t long before we cancelled because of exorbitant cost and Snyder wrecking our team. That said, if we become competitive again I may be willing to pay up again to watch.

I think the dates included in the suit start in 2012.
