Good try guys..bad luck.

On the comercial thing...football isn't a stop and start game so we only get comercials durring the half time over here. I am sure that is pretty much the same in most countries.

When the USA had the World Cup they tried to have the game changed into four quarters so there could be comercials and it was nearly enough to cause diplomatic relations to break down amongst football loving countries. Can't blame them..imagine if a country that doesn't play baseball hosted one tournament and decided they had the right to change the rules of a game that is more important than religion in some countries.

So, to get around it when the World Cup was in the USA they had little rotating adverts in the corncer of the screen..near the score. Don't know if ESPN are still doing that.
