NFL will put mandatory cameras in locker rooms for stadium fans
http://j.mp/14Hxx62 (CBS)
As the NFL continues to figure out ways to keep its fans' in-stadium
experience good enough to prevent them from just staying home and
watching on a huge HD flat-screen for a fraction of the cost (and free
parking!), here's the latest idea: locker room cams. Oh, and it's
mandatory. "[The NFL] will encourage the teams to use the video on
their stadium scoreboards, to give fans who buy tickets an inside look
at what goes on in the teams' inner sanctums," the NY Times reports.
Assuming we're talking about pregame and postgame speeches (and all of
that kind of stuff) rather than turning the stadium's scoreboards into
a voyeurist's dream scenario, this probably won't be much different
than the sort of in-locker room treatment that you can catch on the
various postgame shows or on the weekly NFL Films productions (though,
I suppose it'll be more timely if you can watch it in the stadium).

Not from "The Onion." -- What could go wrong? // Oh yes, and only
available in the stadium? Uh huh, except for all the folks streaming
it out on their phones, Google Glass, etc.
