Watching NFL games, at least in the United States, has become something of a chore.
Some people buy cable and streaming services, but at times, even after spending a fortune across several places, it is difficult for fans to get access to every game in the league.
Sunday Ticket was supposed to pave the way for fans to watch every game on their network, but even that has had its flaws.
This service has been helpful for fans who have many allegiances, but now that a lawsuit was filed against them, their reign was threatened.
However, as was reported by Front Office Sports via B/R Gridiron on Twitter, this case has officially been overturned in favor of the NFL.
The Judge found that the previous verdict wasn’t based on ‘evidence and reasonable inferences.’

The lawsuit indicated that Sunday Ticket had a monopoly on the market and that their prices were too high, but that didn’t hold up in a court of law.
Now, it’s back to square one for fans across the United States, and across the world as well.
Some people will try and find alternate sources, while others will stick with Sunday Ticket, hoping they keep improving the services they offer.
At the end of the day, the NFL is king as it pertains to viewership and the general likability of the sport.
They are a massive company, and while the Sunday Ticket controversy seemed like it could derail them, they ended up getting everything they wanted for now, even though it wasn’t the outcome many fans expected.
