why does the NFL do these deals with Sprint?

Sprint is a DISTANT 3rd when it comes to customers base. Does Sprint of the NFL actualy think this will drive custoemrs to Sprint? Sorry considering I can't even get Spint let alone 3g or EVDO or whatever they use here I couldn't swicth to Sprint if I wanted. I shouldn't suprise me considering the NFL deals with DirecTv which has 1/5 the customers of cable.

The NFL likes to maintain the exclusivity of its content and choosing Sprint is probably much the same as their exclusive contract with DirecTV for NFL Sunday Ticket.

Yes I understand this. The NFL is flat out lying when it says it does this stuff for the fans because if they wanted to reach teh MOST fans they wouldn't have these deals. chances are Sprint wil be out of business before this deal gets to it final year. I guess the NL doesn't know this.
