there’s like 11 minutes of actual play in a 3 hour game. Not even exaggerating. The rest is ads, replays and watching people stand around twiddling their thumbs.
Thats so fucken inane, can’t we just bring back gladiatorial games? Mock naval battles, to first blood fights, and having Christians mauled by lions sounds a lot more fun with less brain damage.
Perhaps we can use it as a breeding incentive for increasing the Asiatic lion population, we be close to historically accurate since the Romans almost exclusively used the Barbary lion which was a sub population of Asiatic lions.
60 minutes play time NFL and college. Don’t care I love college football even though my team has been hot ass the last 20 years and NIL, transfer portal, and conference expansion is making it worse.
I used to enjoy it, but as they kept injecting more and more ads, in addition to their horrific response to the concussion stuff, it’s become unwatchable to me.
However, that being said, I think the sport itself is pretty good. Think of it as being “turn-based” rather than the “realtime” of soccer. There is an extreme amount of strategy involved, in addition to the necessary physical abilities. Also, weirdly, math sometimes lol
But yeah, not good enough for me to ignore the insane and dangerous culture of giving your child dozens of concussions before their brain is fully developed…
Football is cringe
If it wasn’t before, it certainly is now.

Roman boxing would be amusing to revive.
But yeah, we have a surplus of Christians and a declining lion population, so that might restore balance.

Don’t forget all of the less than subtle gambling references.
Only if you don’t count the time at the line of scrimmage, while the clock runs, as “play time.” Which, imo, would be pretty ignorant of the sport.
It’s four, 15-minute quarters of game time. And yes, several hours of ads, which is the main reason I stopped watching.

The vulgar masses revel in banality.

If I want an object lesson in F=ma I’ll get a Newton’s cradle. Less boring, and it doesn’t destroy people’s lives and health.
Yeah we get it you don’t like “sportsball” and that makes you unique. What a ridiculous comment lol
Particularly the NFL, which operates as a cartel with monopoly on what is effectively a blood sport.
