NFL eliminates cross-ownership policy

Just to clarify, the rule meant that if you owned an NFL team in city A, you could not own another professional sports team in city B if city B ALSO had an NFL team.

I believe the reasoning for this was so that NFL owners wouldn't be competing for the same sports dollars through franchises in other sports/leagues.

Why change it now I'm not specifically sure why, other than that the  NFL/pro sports is a different animal then it was when the rule was devised and owners probably want more flexibility to own more sports teams.
