The only way a change like this would be made is that antenna-only customers were complaining about their missing favorite Thursday night shows. Thursday night sponsors of regular programming would have had a word in this too.

I am a spots photographer and I walk sidelines. My question is... Why is there an official walking in front of the team with a hand held device and dragging a cord?! Every player and coach steps on that wire. (Not me) I have shot HS pics in other states, they don't have a timekeeper on the sidelines, he's in "the box." Where is the time keeper in college and the pros? The timekeeper is in the box where he can see. Kudos to the the schools with wireless, but can that official really see the play better than the person in the box? The color of the wire is often grey. It kind of disappears in the dark shadows in front of the team. It should be WHITE or maybe even traffic orange like some of the down marker chains. It's annoying and I just don't get the whole concept.
