                    Twitter just got the rights to broadcast all NFL Thursday games.

                    http://www.bbc.com/sport/american-football/35970379

                    So I couldn't care less about the NFL, but what I am wondering is... how is Twitter going to monetize this? I mean, now that I know Twitter shows stuff... I still have no idea how I would go about watching or finding anything! As an interested possible Twitter viewer, as a long term Twitter user, I don't have the first clue how to use their service to consume this content that they are spending a fortune to get the rights to.

                      Twitter owns Periscope... I imagine they will use the Periscope platform to broadcast it.

                        Maybe they will recoup what they spent on Periscope!

                                      I'm a bit surprised there is more than 40 ft of relief inside Houston.
