Antitrust Case Could Change Landscape of Sports (NFL vs. American Needle)

Lester Munson is giving the doomsday scenario, but it sounds pretty bad if the NFL (and other leagues including the NCAA and BCS) can declare themselves a single entity. It would essentially eliminate all antitrust actions against these organizations. Doesn't sounds pleasant or reasonable at all.
