Then add the 2 minute warning, official's timeouts, challenges, injury timeouts, TV timeouts (they really have these), and so on. I usually Tivo the games and play back without commercials.
People are constantly asking me if I've seen this game or that game. The answer is always no.

I love football. Great sport, lots of fun, but I cannot sit there and stare at a TV for three hours without going crazy. There are a lot of distractions at the game itself so going to a game is fun because you have things to do during the breaks, but at home? I'll pass. The score will be the same whether I spent three hours in front of a TV or not.
