Re: Study: NFL games only have 11 minutes of action
We patiently sit through three hours of mostly anxious anticipation awaiting the ultimate outcome of a game where 3-4 critical plays generally decide the outcome. It dosen't even take eleven minutes to run those plays....Interesting observation however.
FOX is murder on the commercials, sometimes I think they forget there's even a game going on. |

Re: Study: NFL games only have 11 minutes of action
This post has ruined my game day experience. Haha.
No joke, all day I kept just seeing how much time I got to see an actual play. I stopped watching both games in the 1st quarter and just started reading instead. |

Re: Study: NFL games only have 11 minutes of action
heard on sports reporters the other day (they were speculating) that the best time to watch games without commercials is the start of the 4 o'clock game on sundays b/c tv stations dont want to start playing commercials until all the 1 o'clock games have ended and all the viewers are switched over to the 4 o'clock game.

Re: Study: NFL games only have 11 minutes of action
There's more action in Baseball because there's less physical contact. Despite there being only 11 minutes of action, playing in the NFL is more hazardous than any other sport. And the history of player injuries supports this fact. On Sports Science they compared a Ray Lewis bull rush to Swat team battering ram. Conclusion, Ray Brings 1000 pounds of force per hit, a battering ram 800 pounds. Imagine being a running back playing against the Ravens, and being hit by Ray Lewis almost the entire game. Nothing compares to the punishment of the NFL. The only other sport is MMA and Hockey.
