I thought people were boycotting why the heck are they getting richer??

The NFL finalized media rights deals worth $10B annually, or $110B over the course of the 11-year deals. For many consumers, the new deals will look largely like the last deals, with the big TV packages remaining unchanged on CBS, Fox, NBC and ESPN, albeit for much bigger rights fees, and many more digital rights. The deals begin with the '23 season and run through '33. ESPN, once again, will pay the highest rights fee, coming in at an average of $2.7B per year, though its 35% increase is far lower than the other media companies. Plus, its deal puts ABC in the Super Bowl rotation, will bring one exclusive international series game to ESPN+ and will allow the NFL to flex meaningful games onto Monday night.
quote:
The NFL announced a new set of national television deals Thursday, which keeps games on ESPN/ABC, Fox, CBS, NBC, Amazon and NFL Network through the 2033 season.
Terms were not released.
The agreement keeps Sunday afternoon games on CBS and Fox, Sunday night games on NBC and Monday night games on ESPN with some games also airing on ABC. For the first time, Amazon will be the exclusive home for Thursday night games, which will also be on over-the-air channels in the competing teams' home markets. NFL Network will also air select games.
ABC picks up two Super Bowls during the deal -- the first in 2026 -- with the other networks airing three.
The agreement also calls for additional "flex" options to move better matchups into prime time slots on Sundays on NBC and, for the first time, Mondays on ESPN.
The ESPN package also includes the ability to stream games on ESPN+, as well as one international series game on an exclusive national basis. NBC, CBS and Fox will also have the ability to stream games they hold the rights to.
"We're proud to grow our partnerships with the most innovative media companies in the market," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. "Along with our recently completed labor agreement with the NFLPA, these distribution agreements bring an unprecedented era of stability to the League and will permit us to continue to grow and improve our game."

Networks are still willing to pay more even though 2020 was a net decline in viewership. It's a bet that the decline is temporary.
Is that so hard to figure out that you had to ask the board?

Maybe the NFL will finally have enough money to start their own D league now instead of forcing kids that don't belong there into college.

Only the clowns on this board claimed they were boycotting the NFL and most of them were lying.

Not boycotting, just no longer interested. Watched a total of 1/2 of one game: the super bowl.
Watched a team playing college ball on Saturdays. Suits me just fine.

Downgraded my TV package so I don't even have ESPN, NFL Network, Fox Sports, or any of the sports channels anymore. They can all frick off. I haven't missed it nearly as much as I thought I would. I don't know about everyone else but 2 of the 3 fantasy leagues I was in for 2019 didn't renew for 2020 and the 3rd one had to replace a few members that dropped because they didn't care to watch anymore.

Ratings were down last year, there's no denying that. Networks are apparently betting on the ratings decline being temporary from a combination of COVID and a presidential election year. We'll see how it works out for them. ESPN putting themselves in a financial pinch because they overpaid for TV rights isn't anything new...just ask all their staffers who've been laid off the past few years.

110b / 2959 games = 37.2 Million per game.
