NFL nixes church's plan to show Super Bowl

That the heck???

the NFL objected to the church's plans to use a projector to show the game, saying the law limits it to one TV no bigger than 55 inches.

What "LAW" limits how big a TV I can watch the Super Bowl on? I realize it says "out of home" TVs, but why is that important. If I can have people over to my "home" why can't I have them over to a building I own that isn't a "home".

The Church should go ahead with this event. Besides the negative publicity the NFL would get for actually suing a CHURCH, I don't see how they could ever win.
