Well, we should soon start seeing NFL Mobile experiences, since it's Sunday! 
I signed up last week, agreed to the $10/mo fee, and all seems well. I can close and open the app without the prompt for subscription. No issues. Just like was reported here, it should be free for all 4G users and you can safely ignore the monetary commitment (cough! -- I know, it sticks in my craw too, but..). It was reported here that if you are charged, just call in and have the fee removed.
It does appear to be true about the free subscription for 4G phones. To provide a similar example, I signed up for Visual Voicemail to deal with the GB VM notification issue, then I called and requested a credit on my account to offset the $2.99/mo fee. I saw the fee hit and the credit hit. I got a text message informing me of my subscription start at $2.99 and a text message informing me of a $2.99 credit applied to my account. This included an "a new document is available to view in your My Verizon account" message (this would be the document showing I signed up -- equivalent of an electronic signature/commitment). I saw no such thing from NFL Mobile. Nada. So, I'm thinking the "system" is smart enough to know not to actually charge a fee for 4G phones, regardless of the $10 prompt when you sign up.
Just thought I'd start this football weekend off right! Or not.
