Another ignorant statement.......

on your part. That indirect value most certain hits the P&L in the advertising rates they get for other programs. As far as what might be my thing, as a CPA with over 40 years public and private experience I will be happy to discuss P&Ls or other aspects as you would like. What might be your thing?

What would Netflix pay for a weekly Saturday NFL game?

Massive audiences.......

I suspect every network loses money on NFL contracts

And here is a much better analysis**

What "benefits" do you believe.....
2hhoop3 12/28/24 06:03 PM ET
Look I'm done

lawhokie 01/01/25 09:54 AM ET

Big12 guy 12/28/24 02:11 PM ET
Wait a minute; Netflix has the NFL Thursday games now?**
mancunian 12/28/24 03:02 PM ET
My bad. The $150M for 2 years is correct, but it
Big12 guy 12/28/24 03:23 PM ET
it's a 3 year deal - $150 million per game - based on ratings
AnotherTechW 01/02/25 08:20 AM ET

Probably got new subscribers and Ad money for it too. I didn’t watch it,
Stech 12/28/24 01:58 PM ET
Has the potential for a huge paradigm shift, it’ll be interesting to watch.**
Stech 12/28/24 11:35 AM ET
They also released the Beyonce half time show as a stand alone special
daveinop 12/28/24 11:17 AM ET
