my solution to this was to watch hockey. Unless the Phins are on it was increasingly hard to stay interested when there is 15 minutes of commercials between a TD, Extra Point, and kick off. And God forbid if there was a penalty or review.
Hate to say this on a football message board, but hockey has always been the more exciting sport to watch IMO.
Dude, take this down.....you know so many women will read this and say "and how is that different than sex". Our answer should be the same....."the build up is worth it.....Commercials are fore-play"....stick together guys, or they will pick us off one by one.
I believe it is. I recall reading an article last year that said baseball was nine minutes. Soccer is better than all IMO. Then again, I am European so my opinion may be a bit biased.
The commercials are out of control. No wonder car companies ran out of money when they have 90 slots PER HALF!!! And the drug adds... it is a good thing I don't own a bazooka. Way too much repetition on the adds. I find my self enjoying DVR'd games more. Just fast forward through the crap.
You mean to tell me we get all excited and bent for 11 minutes of actual football?? That just stinks. But, how I love it!!
you would need a squad of 250 playerss for each team just to make it through the season if each game of football actually had 60 minutes of playing time
anyone care to do the math of what an entire football season is from the first pre-season snap to the last super bowl snap? cuz i don't, but would like to know the answer
i do hate all the commercials in the NFL, you have a commercial then go to the kick off, then commercial then 1 down, 2 down, Time out... commercial... 3rd down, punt commercial ect...
I've always thought they should expand the roster and play more than 16 games. Make the games longer while their at it, maybe by making the clock stop after every play.
