Superbowl $ Winners

NPR's John Ydstie reports that with so much money flowing around the Super Bowl, it would seem logical that the franchise owners of the Green Bay Packers and New England Patriots would be in for a hefty payday. But that's not so, says Ydstie, who says that revenue sharing means that the worst teams make as much money off the Super Bowl as the teams that actually play.
