As you may know, the NFL runs a very tight ship in regards to its footage. NFL Films does a great job with all the footage, but only licenses footage to… I dunno, whatever. I don’t know how it works. But (it seems) only news broadcasts and those who pay out the ass can show NFL footage, especially Super Bowl footage. And you certainly can’t put it online. (You have to go to NFL.com for that!)
This puts local television hosts in a tough situation. When talking about last night’s Super Bowl, the hosts of 10! weren’t able to show any footage. Fortunately, Lori Wilson channeled her second grade ways and was able to use action figures and stuffed toys to create a fairly accurate recap.
Oh, also, Bill Henley is wearing a Peyton Manning jersey and shoulderpads in this clip.
To the NFL: Please don’t ever release your footage. We’d lose moments like this.
Oh, and also, this isn’t the first time something like this has happened.
