The chickens have come home to roost. And the NFL is gonna need a bigger roost.
After thirty years of gouging fans for Sunday Ticket in order to persuade plenty of them to watch whatever was made available on free, over-the-air TV, the reckoning has arrived in the form of a $4.096 billion verdict in a federal class action lawsuit.
Of that amount, $96 million goes to the commercial establishments in the class. The $4 billion becomes the recovery for residential customers.
Under federal antitrust laws, the amount will be trebled — to $12.288 billion.
