Football (as in, 'soccer', but where I am born I refuse to call it anything else than Football
) would like to have a word with you. We in Europe would cry ourselves to death if a football game would take 3 hours each.
I think part of the reason why football is getting more popular in the USA is because it takes far less time to watch a full match. Even with the half-time break. There is just no way to abuse ads every few minutes as would be possible in MLB and NFL.
I was born with football on tv, and I have spent time to watch both MLB and NFL matches. But my stamina wasn't just able to handle the amount of stops, and the general lack of real gameplay in comparison. Only in video games am I able to handle it, because I am the boss of the gameplay.
