Since the U.S. Gov't grants the NFL an Anti-Sherman Trust Act exemption, and that the gambling industry makes a butt-ton of money from NFL games. Do you think the Gov't should subpoena the 50000 page document from NFL?
P.S. not a full blow roid investigation
P.P.S. part of the reason the US gov went after MLB was due in part of gambling as well as fair play.

It depends on if the Feds need the document for an investigation. If they need it, they will get it.

I think the collective bargaining agreement precedes any government intervention unless the NFL is deemed unsuitable or unable to disciple and enforce infractions.

So in this case, the government will probably be staying the frick out.

IMO
