Because the NFL is what it is, it has to be regulated.

We're not talking about a power company or telephone company. It's entertainment. Don't watch if you don't want to. Don't buy tickets.
I get the idea that the NFL is a monopoly, but it is a total luxury. What I'm hearing is, "The NFL is a monopoly, and people have the right to watch NFL football for a reasonable price! Get the government involved, because without regulation the NFL could get out of control and start denying people their natural born right to watch football!"
I understand the monopoly argument, I just don't buy it.
