6. I'd Be Happy If The NBA Takes The TV Day Back

But, with the next few Christmas days happening on days the NFL already plays, they won't go down without a fight.
I still don't get the Netflix decision. As big as Netflix is, way more people can access the networks and ESPN.
Netflix has 89 million subscribers.
ESPN, when including the streaming service has 10 million more than that.
The networks all have reach into 120 million households or more.
Seems like the NFL willfully excluded 10s of millions of potential viewers.
