The aren’t making enough money off of Super Bowl. Believe you ME, that there will be hundreds of violations of this ruling in every other country in the world. Just for the Americans, American football this applies. Sheeple, follow their rules!

What about all of the bars in the country with a big screen and a huge patronage buying their goods (bud, etc.)

This is just one more reason why I just can't get into the NFL (I prefer college FB) and haven't watched the "Super Bowl" in years.
First you have players on the field, who get paid millions (in many cases) because they are good and they are professionals doing monkey dances or carrying off a football for their collection for a good play they made when they are doing precisely what what they are suppose to do.
Second, you have numerous players who have been given a gift (their ability and opportunity to play in the NFL) and some times a second chance in life who squander it off field.
Then you have the NFL not only telling churches they can't advertise "Super Bowl" parties but other businesses. I've seen many adds for "game day" parties and 'super" parties. And yet it is these unofficial Super Bowl parties that make it possible for the NFL to make lotsa moolah...
SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL-- SUPER BOWL--
There I said it.

Just how does this violate NFL copyrights? Probably the same way that music copyright works. Anytime you hear music in a restaurant, the music must purchase a liscense for playing it. ASCAP, BMI etc are famous for the way they intimidate business across the nation with large fines in order to build their membership base.

Because in the case last year, the Church was charging money.

Thatis my question, just how does this violate anyones copyright. Unless they are charging admission then what difference does it make how many get together to watch the game?

I could understand the NFLs point if the game were PPV, but this is not PPV. My brothers church has done this for the last few years on their 10-12ft HD projector.
