General descriptions are fine, but saying that a particular person (ie "you" or "the public") is allowed to do something in relation to another (the NFL) boarders on specific advice. There is a difference between explaining the concept of "fair use" and saying that a particular use is fair. On second thought I do think the article made a mistake. Sure, you can VHS the superbowl, but good luck doing that on a modern TV/cable setup. Recording an HD copy will likely involve bypassing encryption or other content protections. Saying that anyone can "tape" the event is an overstatement. Some "taping" is cool, other "taping" may violate any number of rules.
