I never realized how lame American Football was until today.

Hey doods.
 
Don't get me wrong.  I still watch football when I can (meaning when the Broncos are playing).  There's a new thing on DirecTV that takes an NFL game and deletes all the time between plays and boils it down to the actual time between when the ball is snapped and when the guy is tackled.  They include a brief shot of the referee if there is a penalty or a challenge.  They cut out ALL stop time.  Any guesses on how long these programs are for a football game that has a broadcast of 3 hours? 
 
 
The answer is......
 
30 minutes. 
 
Kinda adds a little perspective on the game, eh?

So, do they cut out the commercials for the John Elway commemorative jock strap? ;-)

I don't think that there is anything of substance left on TV these days...
