I didn't know this antitrust lawsuit was even going on.


Sunday Ticket trial, with up to $21 billion at issue, gets started

" Via the Associated Press, opening statements happened Thursday in the massive antitrust class action against the NFL over the Sunday Ticket package."

" The Wall Street Journal recently took a closer look at what this case could mean. With up to $7 billion in damages, and given that the antitrust law requires damages to be tripled, the league could be looking at a $21 billion judgment, or $656.25 million per team."

" Fans, frankly, should be on #TeamMuckyDuck (who started the case). If the NFL loses, Sunday Ticket will become cheaper. And you’ll likely be able to buy it one team at a time, and possibly one week or one game at a time."

Sounds like the lawyers for the plaintiffs are fucking this case up, the judge is irritated. Doesn't look good as it stands right now.

Jury Rules NFL Owes More Than $4 Billion in Sunday Ticket Antitrust Case

"The league has been ordered to pay $96 million to bars that said they were overcharged for Sunday Ticket, and $4.7 billion to fans who paid for the streaming package. Under federal antitrust law, those damages are tripled, bringing the total to more than $14 billion."

"The league said in a statement that it will “certainly” appeal the verdict, calling the suit “baseless and without merit.” The case could eventually end up at the U.S. Supreme Court."

It'll last forever in appeals. Years.
