Get through all the endless time outs, penalties, and commercials, and get too thee action. It does not take long to watch a game when you skip to just the plays on the fields and not long reviews of a play, and walking off the penalties. Switch to another game and catch up there. She can record 6 different games at once....
That's because most football games have only ~11-12 minutes of actual playing time.

The rest is announcers yammering on and players just standing around while the viewers endure endless friggin' commercials with "talking animals", old people in bath tubs on some hillside or other inane bs about "saving" money. What a joke. The last thing the almighty tv wants us to do is save money.

Else, how are they able to pay the commish more than 20 mil...every year?

Btw, it appears the PAC12 has gone he way of the Emu. Love it. Screw them.
