Increasing Costs for Viewing NFL Games

   Television  (T.V.) rights, the agreement that teams make with broadcasting networks like CBS, Fox, ESPN, etc., will be increasing over the next few years.  With the networks paying roughly $1 billion dollars per year (ESPN paying $2 billion for its package) consumers and smaller T.V. networks will probably trade the costs on to consumers with higher subscription fees.  See also, http://www.sportsillustrated.com/.
