I think this is an awsome thing. this helps fans to actually watch and see rather than listen to it on the radio whitch is hard to follow. but i disagree that the should show the utah games especially since its in orem. but if this is gonna be a big sucess then they should do this in a dollar theater up by ogdon or something.

Brady,

You rock! I am so excited. So let me ask a question of the reporter. Are people who go to see the games allowed to give donations because we're so HAPPY and GRATEFUL that Brady did this?

Thank goodness!!! A businessman who understands marketing. Brady, you built it and we will come. Thanks for our "Field of Dreams" here in Utah Valley.

This is interesting - but I think this would still violate copyright law. By showing the game to a large audience (as looks to be the intent here with the tailgate party), even for 'free', they're outside the home-use exception in the Copyright Act. It will be interesting to see how long this is allowed to run, if it every really sees the light of day. I'm sure the cable/satellite/conference lawyers will take a very close look.

THANK YOU!! This is such a nice thing for Brady to do for the fans. The tailgate party should be fun, too!

Jeff, I've seen this done all the time. I highly doubt that it is against copy right law. If it was, nobody would be allowed to go to Legends to watch games on Saturday.
