The NFL’s ‘Sunday Ticket’ Saga: A Long and Winding Road Ahead
As the dust settles on the recent ‘Sunday Ticket’ class action lawsuit, one thing is clear: this is far from over. The magnitude of the verdict all but guarantees an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, regardless of which side comes out on top in the initial appellate process.
The NFL’s ‘Sunday Ticket’ has been a staple of American football for decades, but its future is now uncertain.
The next key date in this ongoing saga is July 31, when Judge Philip Gutierrez will conduct a hearing on the NFL’s motion for judgment as a matter of law. According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, it’s possible that Gutierrez may take the entire verdict and throw it out, given his comments in open court earlier this month. Florio notes that it would have been far less conspicuous if Gutierrez had ruled on the motion before the verdict was entered, and not after.
The jury has spoken, and now it will become much harder for the judge to take it away.
As the appeals process begins, one thing is certain: the NFL will stop at nothing to protect its interests. But what does this mean for the future of ‘Sunday Ticket’, and for football fans across the country?
Football fans everywhere are waiting with bated breath to see what happens next in the ‘Sunday Ticket’ saga.
In the coming weeks and months, we’ll be keeping a close eye on developments in this case. One thing is for sure: the stakes are high, and the outcome will have far-reaching implications for the NFL and its fans.
