NFL Commish vs. HBO's "Ballers"


Recommended Posts

According to Mark Wahlberg, executive producer of Ballers, Goodell called him personally trying to put a stop to the show (like the NFL did with Playmakers several years back). Goodell is denying that he did this. Wonder if he smashed his phone.

They use real team names and logos so I would imagine NFL has some say. Maybe not though. They must have some agreement.

South Park has used the Broncos, Chiefs, Dolphins, Patriots, and Redskins likenesses in their run of show. In fact, Cartman's mom has slept with the entire 1989 Broncos team.
