This is the crux of the matter:
The NFL has television contracts with ABC/ESPN, CBS, NBC and Fox.
This spreading of the contract amongst several networks is for a REASON, people!!!!!!!
They play each off the other and Goodell is thus able to control the TV press coverage.
To paraphrase Buffalo Springfield's For What It's Worth: "Step out of line, the may come and throw you away...."
Just wait until you hear what the league is doing right now to NBC because of Florio's coverage of Deflategate.
Does the NFL really think it can control coverage in the digital age? What a bunch of dimwits.
