NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is trying to be everything to everyone. Testifying in a potentially monumental antitrust lawsuit against the league, Goodell attempted to walk the line between promoting the NFL as pro-consumer and pro-fan while explaining that products like Sunday Ticket weren’t made for the average Joe.
As laid out by the AP’s Joe Reedy, Goodell was on the stand for nearly four hours Monday, grilled over the league’s Sunday Ticket program. The lawsuit, originated in 2015 and finally going to trial now, accuses the league of monopolizing the product at an “inflated” price, making it unattainable for many fans to purchase.
