Tony Romo's fantasy football convention gets restraining order against NFL

The National Fantasy Football Convention has accused the NFL of harassing its sponsors. It now has a temporary restraining order in place to keep the league away from them.

The NFL is prevented from "contacting, by phone, email or otherwise, any past or present NFFC sponsor or attendee in regard to the 2016 NFFC event, or attempting to interfere, in any way, with the 2016 NFFC event, and from taking any other action that would in any way harm the 2016 event," according to the order signed by a judge in Dallas County, Texas.
