Don't they do this in every fucking sport anyway? Who cares? A soccer game still goes by faster than any other sport. I'd rather have 5 cooling breaks than the commercial fest of NFL games.
Good post. Tonight we had another RedSox/Yankee clash coming in just under 4 hrs! At some point it gets inhumane not to let players get a sip of water playing in those conditions. So what they tack on another 30-60 seconds... who cares?
And the NFL is beyond a commercial fest now, ever notice when the AFC game comes to commercial break you switch over to NFC game and they are also at commercial. Happens more often than not.
