The National Football League (NFL) is facing a significant class-action lawsuit over its 'Sunday Ticket' package, which has commenced in Los Angeles federal court under US District Judge Philip Gutierrez. The lawsuit, which involves over 2.4 million subscribers, alleges that the NFL engaged in antitrust violations by using agreements with broadcasters to maintain a monopoly on distribution, allowing DirecTV to charge artificially high prices. The plaintiffs are seeking up to $21 billion in damages, claiming that the NFL's actions resulted in inflated costs for consumers. The trial, which began on June 5, will determine if the NFL broke antitrust laws and could potentially reshape the league's media rights model.
The NFL wouldn't want me (or anyone else in the media) to say this, but all fans should be on #TeamMuckyDuck for this trial. The full Sunday Ticket package will become cheaper if the NFL loses, and fans quite possibly will be able to get Sunday Ticket on a team-by-team basis. https://t.co/oqxivtfkYF

The Sunday Ticket trial has started. The league could lose up to $21 billion. The fans could win the ability to see out-of-market games for a lot less money than the Sunday Ticket package currently costs. https://t.co/EUtmPMenC7
