It is so the program cannot be taped and then re-sold, rented,
broadcast, whatever.  It's the visual enforcement of the NFL's statement,

"This telecast is intended for the private use of our audience.  Any
rebroadcast or other use of this telecast, without the express written
consent of the <home team> and the National Football League, is
prohibited."

I do *not* watch too much football!  :^)
