Its not going to happen. People have to remember that the NFL has anti-trust protection and as a result of that protection did nothing wrong when they went exclusive with the selling of their brand. Its their brand and they are able to sell it to whomever they want.

The only way the NFL would give up the EA deal would be if it wasn't profitable for them (and this applies to their other brands as well). However, we all know that's not going to happen.

Read http://antitrustcommentary.com/wp-co...needlevnfl.pdf in regards to the initial case between American Needle and the NFL.

Its got a slim to none chance of getting overturned.

As slim as it is, I hope EA's NFL exclusivity will get overturned.

If not, 2K should make an attempt at a generic football game with customization.
