Sprint users, say goodbye to the NFL app: Sprint has lost their contract with the National Football League. The Wall Street Journal notes that Verizon users have reason to celebrate (if you are into such things), as Big Red has signed a new four-year contract with the NFL to bring all the coverage and the popular RedZone Channel to Verizon phones. The new deal is valued at $720 million, a 50% premium over what Sprint was paying the NFL, and that’s not all: Verizon users are getting more from the NFL than Sprint did: they’ll have access to live footage of every NFL game and plenty of additional content.

This sucks and may be the death nell for my loyalty to sprint once my contract is up. Unless of course they get a 4g webos device. Then I'm back in : )
Love it. I've been using the Sprint NFL "app" on my Verizon Phone for the last year and a half or so. The only problem was it was a little slow. Glad to hear that Verizon got this!
