I wonder if there is some financial reason for the switch. The NFL on their own site uses Adobe Flash. Maybe NBC had to pay too much to MS to license Silverlight and got a deal from Adobe due to the NFL already using Flash.
Because people dont want to install more software just to view some crappy DRM laiden content streams.
