To my knowledge the NBA teams do not have a revenue sharing system set up, or at least did not at the time of that case.

Perhaps, but how is that relevent to the case? Are you saying that the courts made this decision to let younger players in specifically because of the revenue system that was in place at the time?

See #32. It's the same principle.

You have to buy the right to own a team from the NFL. You then have to share certain parts of revenue with other teams.

In essence it's one large corporation and the NFL has been slowly asserting that fact over the years in anticipation fo this. Take a look around the stadiums these days, lot's of NFL logos on the field etc.

Listen the to broadcast rights that are read at the end of the games "The exclusive property of (insert team name) and the National Football League."

He's gonna get waxed.
