    Anyone notice this about the NFL these days?

    On football Sundays when there are 2 games simultaneously broadcast, at any given time you will more often have commercials running on both networks than neither having a commercial running. Really getting sick of it

    This is just the NFL, and pretty much all football these days. Everything stops the clock for a commercial break. Timeout, commercial, score, commercial, kickoff, commercial, review, commercial, punt, commercial. I love football, but this is a huge reason watching soccer is so enjoyable for me, one commercial break, that's it.

    If it were any other sport it would be unwatchable. But I guess the networks know this and push it right up to the limit.

    Without commercials it would be sucky!!! No time to relax to get beer..snacks..a quicky with the wife.. Commercials boost up economy and good for the mind..football is life! Soccer is for running fools...

    Redzone is a god send. Can't beat $7 bucks a month for it along with Fox Sports channels.

    Isn't that just checking in on different games at different times? I like just watching a particular game I'm interested in, but it's gotten so frustrating.
