NFL is a Nazi enabling organization. Boycott the NFL.

    there’s like 11 minutes of actual play in a 3 hour game. Not even exaggerating. The rest is ads, replays and watching people stand around twiddling their thumbs.

      Thats so fucken inane, can’t we just bring back gladiatorial games? Mock naval battles, to first blood fights, and having Christians mauled by lions sounds a lot more fun with less brain damage.

        Roman boxing would be amusing to revive.

        But yeah, we have a surplus of Christians and a declining lion population, so that might restore balance.

          Perhaps we can use it as a breeding incentive for increasing the Asiatic lion population, we be close to historically accurate since the Romans almost exclusively used the Barbary lion which was a sub population of Asiatic lions.

      Only if you don’t count the time at the line of scrimmage, while the clock runs, as “play time.” Which, imo, would be pretty ignorant of the sport.

      It’s four, 15-minute quarters of game time. And yes, several hours of ads, which is the main reason I stopped watching.

      60 minutes play time NFL and college. Don’t care I love college football even though my team has been hot ass the last 20 years and NIL, transfer portal, and conference expansion is making it worse.
