I believe a recording of a performance would be considered a derivative work under copyright law. As such what you're advocating is large-scale commercial copyright infringement against the NFL and the networks who pay it for exclusive rights.
In summary:
unambiguously unlawful + powerful enemies = won't end well
- ars 15y agoTo be a performance there has to be a creative element, not just a skill. Like wrestling for example, which is pre-scripted. Otherwise someone jumping on a trampoline in his backyard could claim that he is performing and forbid the neighbor from recording him on a copyright basis (rather than a privacy basis - they are completely different laws).
