The average amount of time the ball is in play on the field during an NFL game is only about 11 minutes

Well I’d rather spend 3hrs to be able to watch 11 exiting minutes of play than waste 90min watching feminine soccer players run around doing nothing and crying every time someone touches them, or watching I don’t know how many minutes of basketball were all games are resolved in the last 2 minutes of play.

tumbledore:

People watch three hours of football to witness 11 minutes of actual play. This is why American football is boring and why basketball and soccer are the greatest sports in the world.

  • 11 minutes of actual play
  • 12 minutes of shots of the head coaches and referees
  • 17 minutes of replays
  • 60 minutes of commercials
  • 75 minutes of shots of players huddling, standing at the line of scrimmage or just generally milling about between snaps

Exciting!
