the deal is for eight years and the rights fee is worth an average of $1.5 billion a year, up 50 percent from the $1 billion a year average DirecTV will pay through this season.

I'll continue to cross my fingers that they eventually offer a commonly-available streaming option without the other TV service. We don't watch TV, but I would pay to stream Panthers games.

Just get everyone on the planet to give $1.72 and we can cover it.
