Administrative Law Judge Richard Sippel has officially put an end to the program carriage complaint filed by the NFL against Comcast. That is because the two struck a carriage agreement late Tuesday that had both parties talking about fresh starts and mutual benefits after having hammered away at each other during the FCC hearing on the complaint before Judge Sippel last month. The new agreement consists of an array of video content, including the live Network, video on demand for Comcast's Digital Classic cable customers and the ability to offer the NFL's RedZone Channel when it is created. The NFL also said on Tuesday that it signed two-year extensions on broadcast agreements with CBS and Fox. The networks' deals now run through the 2013-2014 season. Financial terms were not disclosed for any of the deals.
