According to the empirical scientific studies conducted by Fox Sports and Wall Street Journal, there are only 14 minutes of real action in a standard MLB baseball game, and a measly 11 minutes of real action in NFL football. Surprised?
When you factor in the 1 hour pregame hype show and the 30 minute postgame analysis, you're pretty much left with absolute garbage on tele the whole weekend. So unless the Yanks enjoy watching TV advertisement more than actual sport, they really need to shut up about soccer or ice hockey being too boring.
It doesn't end there. On the following Monday after the weekend, there is an investigation into whether ESPN were putting pressure on professional NFL coaches to call TV timeouts. Just the idea of TV time outs has shattered the little interest I had in the sport before last weekend. From what I can gather from observations, the most exciting part of the NFL is fantasy football, where people are on their iphones all weekend checking how many points they've earned. Not even Americans find the actual game interesting enough to sit through.
I'm in no way doubting the athletic ability of these players but I've had enough of this boring nonsense they call sport over here. I'll be cruising the web for some hardcore porn this weekend. At least I can get more than 14 minutes of action out of that.
