I liked this answer so much that I've decided to ping you all to it....
The answer to why Arlen is doing this can be found in the final quote.
He is doing Comcast's bidding.
Comcast owns Philly - he and Fast Eddie are both in their pocket. Comcast is pi$$ed that they can't get a chunk of the Sunday Ticket money for themselves, since the NFL does not make it available on cable (instead selling exclusive rights to DirecTV.)
Since they can't make a deal with the NFL, they are instead siccing their favorite Washington attack dog on them.
Nothing new under the sun - especially with regards to Philly politics.

Wonderful.
I knew there was a reason I hate Comcast's commercials.

Almost a moot point ... NFL Network will in-source the whole shebang soon. Anything to get the AFC off of SeeBS!!!
