The league bans public exhibitions of its games on TV sets or screens larger than 55 inches because smaller sets limit the audience size.

Churches could always install more than one screen/TV under 55 inches.

True — can’t you get several 27” TV’s for the price of one giant one?

This makes perfect sense! Allowing this hurts the NFL ability to sell tickets to the Superbowl. Oh, I’m being sarcastic.

Where is the outrage from environmentalist? Isn’t watching this is groups saving electricity (as opposed to multiple viewing locations).

What is wrong with the NFL? Aw ... people at the gatherings are watching the million dollar advertisements?

Oh {expletive}!!! My HDTV is 56 inches (truly, not just saying that because it is 1 inch bigger than the limit) - does that mean I can't invite friends over to watch? Shesh, if I ask them to bring munchies or a beverage to share does that make it charging for admission? Gads, I could be violating NFL policy...

Wait, here's something better. Hey NFL, you're my favorite thing to watch on TV, but don't get stupid. I could start spending Monday evenings online (FR), and extend those Saturday family hikes into all weekend long hikes. What will you do when your viewer numbers start to drop?
